Gary Fletcher Obituary

Gary Fletcher passed away peacefully on October 29, 2020 and went to be with His Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ at the age of 74.

Gary was born and raised in Amarillo/Canyon, TX and is survived by his devoted wife J'Melle Fletcher, who he shared 51 wonderful years. He is lovingly remembered by three children (Gary II, Justin, and Jaime) and their spouses, six grandchildren, two brothers Phil and Alan and their families, and countless friends. "Pappy", as he was referred to by family, loved them all dearly.

His work ethic was inspirational when it came to the ranch and banking.

Lorna & I have had the utmost respect and admiration of Gary Fletcher. To us he was "the man's man". We are Texans, and thought Gary was the perfect example of a true Texan: strong, independent, loving toward his family and His God, the Lord Jesus Christ. We miss him, but are comforted that Gary is home with his Lord.
Lovingly submitted, Roger and Lorna Hubbard

We have fond memories of Gary and J'Melle in Plainview. Gary was one of the finest men we have ever known. He was a gentleman of the highest order, a person who sincerely cared for others. Gary was a role model for so many people. Although we have been separated by miles, we were able to correspond by email at times. We are sad that he left this earth, but the angels are rejoicing.
Love to J'Melle and family.
Frank and Pat Gabriel
