April 14, 1947 – January 6, 2021
With heavy and broken hearts, we announce the passing of Jim Fletcher (“Fletch” to so many). He died at home in London, Ontario of cancer, at the age of 73. Beloved husband of 32 years to Linda. Cherished father of Tammi, Jamie (Scott), Brandon (Selena), Shelbi and Katie (Jason). Proud and adoring Papa of Jakob, Shane, Jared, Aidan, Kalli and Donnie. Dear brother and brother-in-law of Jack (Dianne), of Sarnia, Dave (Sam), of Rodney, Art, and Joan. Special brother-in-law to Lore VandenAkker, who considered him her hero. Cherished uncle of Sarah, Elisa, Julia, Krista and Emma; he was a big part of their lives, and they will miss him dearly. Fun-loving uncle to many nieces and nephews, who are left with wonderful memories of him. Predeceased by his parents Marion and Jack Fletcher; sister, Marilyn; brothers, Ric and Rob; and sister-in-law, Audrey. Jim worked at London Life for 50 years. He was greatly respected as a leader in his field. Many friendships were forged with associates and clients. As Clem has said, “Fletch put the London in London Life.” Jim was involved with baseball for many years, beginning with fastball, then slow-pitch for various teams. He enjoyed his ‘50’: cheering on the Red Wings (“Gordie Howe is the greatest of them all!”), hosting lawn dart tournaments, and socializing at the club. Jim and Linda loved to travel, whether it was a road trip with friends, Vegas, or concerts and plays. Every adventure was memorable. Jim’s infectious smile and sense of humour always made the party better! He will truly be missed by everyone’s lives that he touched. Cremation has taken place. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date. Rest in peace, Jim.
“You’ve got a friend.” – James Taylor
