David Harvey Fletcher, 62, of Brandon
BRANDON — David Harvey Fletcher, 62, of Brandon, Vt., passed away on Oct. 21, 2025. He was born in Middlebury, Vt., on May 28, 1963, the son of Gene R. Fletcher and Barbara A. (Goss) Fletcher. He grew up in Middlebury, attending Mary Hogan Elementary School and graduating from Middlebury Union High School in 1981. He furthered his education in Albany, N.Y.
For much of his career, David worked alongside his father at WH Waite Funeral Home in Middlebury. After that business was sold, he went on to work at IBM until he retired and moved to Florida.
A lover of the outdoors, David found great joy in hunting, camping and exploring the Green Mountains. He especially relished drives on dirt back-roads, grilling up good food and spending time with friends and family. He loved his dogs dearly and always had a four-legged friend by his side. Known for his kind and gentle nature, he was always ready to do anything for anyone. Those that knew him will deeply miss him and his laughter.
He is survived by his best friend “Ozzy”; his sisters, Roberta and Eva; his brother, Raymond; and many cousins, nieces and nephews.
Memorial Contributions may be made in his memory to the Rutland Humane Society.
A celebration of life will be held at a later date. ◊
