RICHFORD - Lynn E. Buster Fletcher, died Sunday March 20, 2011 at the Northwestern Medical Center in St. Albans one week after his 75th birthday.

Buster was an avid reader and fan of Louis LAmour. He loved listening to country music and going for rides around the mountain. He looked forward to his daily walks around town with Pudge. He took pride in his garden and his lawn care. He liked to hunt and loved to sit on his porch with a cold can of beer on hot summer nights. He had a special love for Fords having owned several over the years. He loved to hear a good joke and had a good sense of humor and usually wore a smile.
The true love of his life was his family. He was married to Joyce Jo (Farrar) Fletcher for 49 years, who survives him.
