The death angel visited the home of Mr. and Mrs. Bal Wright, Feb. 19, 1920 and claimed for it's own their loving daughter Fletcher. She was born in Gap Creek, Ky., on Feb. 4, 1906, being fourteen years, 13 days old and a few years ago moved to Albany, Ky., where she died of influenza.

She leaves father, mother, four sisters, two brothers, and a host of other relatives and friends to mourn her death, but Fletcher has only gone to join her sister and two brothers in Heaven where parting comes no more. Parents, you should not weep for we know if Fletcher could speak to you, she would say, papa and mama, weep not for me, for I am in Heaven waiting for thee. Fletcher joined the church at the age of eleven and lived an unusual christian life for a child. She never forgot to say her prayers and when the end came she was ready to go. She would talk and laugh about dying and say that she didn't care to die and that he would love her once up yonder. It is so hard to part with dear ones, but God knows best, and we are glad we can live so we can meet again.

Her remains were laid to rest in the Gap Creek Cemetery after funeral services by Bro. Dickerson.

Her Cousin,
Edna Frost
