Karen Anita Ross Fletcher was a force in the lives of many - including mine. She was among the first to greet me when I moved to Dayton in 1980 and with her powerful personality, kept me involved in all things Fletcher. Beautiful lady, kind and loving - always wanting the best for young people and was a motivator for them. I am so sorry to hear of her passing. I am sending prayers to Jamie, Jackie, Jerri Berry and Gene.

I would like to send condolences to my uncle Gene on the passing Karen. I just wanted to let you know that she and you were great mentors to me when I was growing up and she always took an interest in me and my getting an education. She would sit me in her car and counsel me when I was letting my grades slip. To nurture my creativity, she involved me in a play that she did as well as other activities. She genuinely cared about the success of youth. With me taking PhD courses now, I know that she would be proud of that. I hope that she is resting peacefully. I love you.

Prayers sent to the Fletcher Family. To know her was to love her. I first met her in the 80s at Fairprit Middle School when she would come the the school to look for (discipline) James (son) and he'd go running to hide. During my high school years, my family and I knew her personally and affectionately! She was an amazing woman that not only spoke confidently and positively but demonstrated it in her actions. Anyone that knew Mrs. Fletcher knows that she loved the Lord! We also know that she encouraged others to aspire for greatness as she did herself. I will cherish her!

Our friend Karen has departed from us. Her light and her voice in school would never be forgotten she was a very active classmate full of laughter full of cheer full of seriousness full of joy. We have been apart for 50 years now but her memory comes into my mind ever so often. May her family be blessed and trust in God for comfort for the Lord himself shall give us comfort. See you later my friend.
