He was preceded in death by his parents, Gene and Gerry; his cherished daughter, Tessa Fletcher; his little sister, Valorie Sweet (Walter); and his little brother, Roy Fletcher. His survivors include his beloved daughters, Billie Jo Brue and Shaundra Dixon (Duane); his siblings, Letty Overby (Darrell), Steele Fletcher (Leslie), Molly Boggs, Betsy Arnold (Neil), Mary Stroklund (Larry, d.), Rene Fletcher, Jimmie Fletcher (Shelly), and Linda Leazenby (Wes); many nieces and nephews, as well as his special friend, Lottie Berg.
