Robert Patrick Fletcher, 84, of Great Falls and formerly New Jersey, passed away on Friday, March 7, 2025, with his family by his side.
Bob was born on August 14, 1940, in Trenton, New Jersey, to George and Mabel (Case) Fletcher. He had nine brothers and three sisters growing up in Trenton where he joined the Marines on April 4, 1960. After his service, he went to work as a mechanic on semi-trucks until he retired.
He met and married JoAnne Rupprecht and together they had a son, Robert John. They later divorced. He met and married Lillian “Lil” Luisi in 1975. His marriage to Lil gave him two stepsons, Kenneth and Frank Luisi. She passed away in 2012.
Bob lived in Jackson, New Jersey until moving to Great Falls in September of 2023 to be with his son, daughter-in-law, grandchildren, and great-grandson. Before moving to Great Falls, he would enjoy going to Atlantic City for an evening. He also enjoyed playing poker with the boys and his New York Mets. When he came to Great Falls, he spent his time with his family going out to dinner, gambling, and occasionally cooking his favorite dish, sausage, peppers, and onions for the family (at least once a week).
He is survived by his son, Robert (Angie) Fletcher; grandchildren, Alicia and Eric Fletcher; great-grandson, Rhykker; brother, Steve; nephew, Matt; and step-granddaughter, Dayna (Tim) Girton. He was preceded in death by his wife, Lil; stepson, Frank Luisi; eight brothers; and three sisters.
The family would like to thank the staff of Stillwater Hospice, Stacey, Clarissa, Ty, and Lea, who made it possible for him to stay with his family at home.
Cremation has taken place per his wishes with no service.
