Don Taylor “Fletch” Fletcher, 57, passed away unexpectedly on Friday, June 7, 2019. He was born in Boulder, CO on May 19, 1962 to Curtis and Ann (Dixson) Fletcher.

The community came to know and love Don through his family’s former Moberly business – The Skateland. He went on to serve his country in the United States Navy. On October 11, 1980 he married Brenda Nickerson and they made Moberly their home. Don was a truck driver for most of his career, with Brenda joining him in later years so they could be together while driving as a team. Prior to moving to away from Moberly last year, Don spent the last 5 years working for his Nickerson family business – 7800 Taxi. He was an avid bowler, attending tournaments throughout the U.S., and enjoyed playing and coaching softball. Don was so proud of and dearly loved spending time with his three grandchildren.

Don is preceded in death by his parents; his beloved wife, Brenda; his son, Don Curtis “D.C.” Fletcher; and his father-in-law, Donald Nickerson.
