To Felicia, Tommy, Mark (Wado), Mary T. Bonner (Mice), Jean and grandchildren. Stretcher was such a people person - always kind, always fun-loving and always upbeat and full of love for all. Whenever in his presence, you would be entertained and uplifted.

Stretcher and Peyton were the "BESTEST" in-laws that a family could ever have.

Rest In Peace, Stretcher
