I was JUST thinking about Mr. Fletcher and the happiest times of my childhood, as a Carvel Ranger, with Mr. Fletcher as coach. He treated me like gold. What a fantastic man the world has lost. My condolences to the Fletcher family. He will be missed but always remembered by all those lives he has touched.
