Fletcher Family,

Thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this difficult time.

1 Thessolonians 4: 13, 14 in the bible says: Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.

We know Mr. Fletcher will be missed, but may the memories left behind warm your hearts and put smiles on your faces.

God's blessings!

To all the Fletchers,
Thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time. We know that earth is not our home and in 1 Thessolonians 4 the bible says "Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him." Our prayer for all of you at this time is that you find comfort in these words and draw on the support of family and friends.
Love,
Gene & Donna Baker
