Vincent D. Fletcher, known to most as “Vinny” and to some as “Vince,” passed away at 5:59 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 27, 2018, in Fort Wayne’s Visiting Nurse Hospice Home. He was 47 years old.
Born in Warsaw to Shannon and Carol Borders Fletcher on Nov. 20, 1970, Vinny was a 1989 graduate of Warsaw Community High School. He worked at LSC Communications, formerly R.R. Donnelley.
Vinny was an independent thinker with an often hidden but tender heart. He enjoyed music, especially heavy metal but also enjoyed classical music from artists like Bach and Beethoven. He liked football and wrestling and was a Dallas Cowboys fan. He also liked reading sci-fi and horror; his favorite author was Dean Koontz.
Those who survive in Warsaw with memories to treasure include his mother, Carol Fletcher; brother, Eric (wife Polly) Fletcher; three nephews: Brad Fletcher, Knickolas Fletcher and Brennan Miller; and two nieces, Ahnalia Miller and Haylee Fletcher. Also surviving are two stepbrothers, Sean (wife Lisa) Fletcher, Chicago, and Nathan Fletcher, Milan, Ill.; and a stepsister, Erin (husband K.C.) Martin, North Pekin, Ill.
Preceding Vinny in passing were his father, Shannon Fletcher (1998), and stepfather, L. Mike Fletcher (2015).
Friends and family will gather for viewing from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 3, at Titus Funeral Home, 2000 E. Sheridan St., Warsaw. Beginning at 1 p.m., Ken Locke of The Salvation Army, Warsaw, will officiate a celebration of Vinny’s life.
