Collene was born in January of 1928 in Louann, Arkansas. She was the eldest of three children. After much moving around her family settled down in Odessa, Texas. It was there that she met and later married Wilburn Fletcher in February 1946. She was widowed when her husband of 68 years succumbed to natural causes on March 31, 2014.
Collene loved playing cards with her friends, bowling, playing Yahtzee with her family until the wee hours of the morning and spending hours fishing. She was a homemaker until 1964 when she went to work at Levine's Department Store and continued working there for the next ten years. She will always be remembered as a great conversationalist. She never met a stranger. She loved having company and always made everyone feel at home. She was a great cook and shared her favorite meals and desserts with the neighbors. She will be missed by all whom her light shined upon.
