  1. Hey, Fletcher....I just wanted you to know that I have been following your progress as best I could, but the article in the Commercial this morning was just awesome. I have such wonderful memories of you at Cordova Middle--your sense of self and humor, your zest for life, and your smile. I have no doubt that the Lord has His Hand on you and that miracles will happen. I'll keep in touch and you keep on getting better.
    Love ya'

    This is Mrs. Rader; your 8th grade science and language arts teacher. I agree with Mrs. Burress and Mrs. Howse. I can remember always laughing with you around. You made my first year at CMS a blast. God Bless you.

    Love

  5. Hey Fletcher, a voice from Bulldogs nation back a bunch of years ago. This is Scott Jackson, Alex's dad. You've always been so strong, so I know you'll keep working hard. You will be in our prayers.

  6. Hey Fletch, I just read your article. Keep your head up so you can see the in-zone, it's 1st and goal, and field goals or not excepted, so I know you are going to the in-zone. We are all praying for the 6 points. KEEP ON PUSHING.

  7. Fletcher, whats up man. I'm up at UT and heard about the accident and I couldn't believe what had happened to my buddy and my teammate. I know you are strong and you won't let anything stop you from achieving your goals. It's obvious you have the right mindset and know that everyone is praying for you. Nothing can defeat you when God is on your side man. Stay strong. Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me". I'm praying for ya man.

  11. Hey Fletcher! I don't know how to get my words together but I am so proud of how determined you are. I expect nothing less from you. You were always a hard headed kid so now is the time to put all that to use. Don't stop trying, believing, and continue to have Faith. Your YMCA family is another supporter in your journey. You were always a favorite of mine! ALl of the Fletcher camp stories came rushing back to me. I will stay in touch with you.
    As I wrote this email the song Let it Be by the Beatles came on. Very inspirational. My prayers are with you and your family. Please let me know if I can be of any help to your family in Memphis.
