MARK DOUGLAS FLETCHER
APRIL 27, 1964 - APRIL 27, 2024
Mark went out of this world in the way he came into it, butt naked! Mark has requested that only extremely attractive women apply to be his pall bearers and he will need 6. He spent his whole life trying to pick up beautiful women and they finally need to pick him up.
As I lay here before you I can’t figure out who put this damn suit on me! I like to thank all of my family, my in laws and outlaws. I wish to have a purple coffin.
I can leave this world confidently knowing that I am nobody’s baby daddy. Unfortunately my family has went before me. I hope they left a trail of bread crumbs, they know how I get lost. (Written by Mark Douglas Fletcher). Graveside services will be held at 2pm CT on Sunday, July 7th at the Highland Cemetery in North Judson, Indiana. Memorials may be made to Shriner Children’s Hospital.
