I want to send my deepest sympathy to Devin’s family today and in the days to come. Being his neighbor for a number of years I can still expect to see him riding his mower on a warm Saturday afternoon. I am so sorry for your loss.

Devin - You will be missed so much. You were an amazing father and a good friend. You touched so many lives. It was apparent at your service with nearly 500 in attendance. It was a sold-out All-Star Game watching #03 at bat and pulling off another double-play at second. I will miss you Devin. -Jennifer

I would like to offer my deepest sympathy to Devin's family and friends. It's times like these when the loving promises of our Heavenly Father such as knowing that we can see our loved ones again can bring us comfort and soften some of the pain we feel in our hearts. 1 Thessalonians 4: 13,14

Our family lived two doors north of the Fletchers on Bennett Avenue until 1996. Devin was 8 years younger than our youngest. We didn't know him well, but our parents played bridge with Diane and Quig for at least 20 or 25 years, and Brian worked one summer for our dad.

Our hearts go out to Devin's family that we knew: Diane, Brian, Amy, and Wendy, and also to those we didn't have the opportunity to know: Deb, Daniel, Jason, Joshua, Makenzie, Jordan, and Vanessa.

May you be comforted by many precious memories of your time together.

Mary Jo, Judy, Barney, Margaret, and Laura Graf

I knew Devin in high school where he was an exceptional athlete. Having recently lost a spouse, I understand how deep your grief must be. I wish you peace and comfort at this time of extraordinary sadness...

Knew Devin for almost 20 years and seen him daily while we worked together. One of the best guys I've ever met in my life. They don't make men like him anymore. A perfect example of what a hard working father/friend should be.. Thanks for making me smile every day! Miss ya Fletch! #799
