Fletcher was preceded in death by his daughter, Rhonda; and sister, Edna.

Survivors: Wife, Alice Pearson, sons, Bryan, Fletcher Jr. and Mario; daughter, Pam Harrell; sisters, Isabelle Ward and Janice Hines; sister-in-law, Ofelia Pena; brothers, Walter, Ralph Jr. and Richard; three grandchildren; one great-grandson; and many extended-family members and friends who loved him.

I am extremely sorry to here of Fletchers passing, I know he is in a wonderful place now and is building rooms for all his family and friends. Fletcher meant a lot to me, he helped in my career, he was a blessing to my family on some presonal matters, reflecting on Fletchers unique personality still to this day will have me laughing. God bless to all Fletchers family.

Dear Alice and family,

I was so sorry to hear of Fletcher's illness and passing. You all don't know me, but Fletcher and I go way, way back. His brother Ralph and sister-in-law Amy lived in the same apartment building with my parents and me. My mother "adpoted" Ralph and Amy. They were best friends. When Bonnie came along she was with us as much as her parents. Through them we met Fletcher and he quickly became a good friend too. We spent a lot of time sitting on the front porch talking. Fletcher was a gentleman in every sense of the word and I truly loved him as a friend. Bonnie told me of his illness and said one day when she talked with him he told her he would like to talk with me before he passed. I am so thankful I got a chance to talk with him about a month ago. We had a good conversation just talking about old times. My deepest sympathy to you and your family. He is with Jesus waiting for you and his children.
