Jason FLETCHER Obituary

FLETCHER, Jason Warwick. Jason passed away unexpectedly on Friday, June 26, 2020 at 4:37 pm, aged 67 years. Son of Rie and the late Bruce; dearly beloved husband of Lillian; and proud father of Pierce, Hugo and Kent. He carved his own path through life, never compromised who he was for anyone, and was always willing to lend a hand. For all his puns, coffee trips, walks with Roxy, fundraisers, umpiring stints and questionable comments, he is sorely missed. Rest in peace, it really won't be the same without you. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that any donations be made to the Prostate Cancer Foundation https://prostate.org.nz/make-donation/ A funeral service will be held at 11 am on Wednesday July 1 at Mother of Perpetual Help Parish, 510 Riddell Road, Glendowie. In honour of Jason, the attire will not be formal, the service will not be lengthy, and catering will be provided.

Dear Rie it is with great sadness that I have come across JASON'S obituary as I was actually looking for a way to contact you. Since this Pandemic has occurred I have not been able to contact you and was getting concerned for your wellfare. To you Lilian I am a stranger yet I have always considered Jason a brother with an extreme dry wit who said the funniest things at the most appropriate time. He was a good bloke too. Please accept my sincere condolences at this sad time Chris.

Lillian - it is many years since we all journeyed the continent as the A Team, haggling in the markets and producing cuisine that Jason insisted needed a knife and fork. My memories of our journey include New Year digging ourselves out of a mud wallow in Zaire; sunglasses disguising Jason's bargaining eyes in the carpet markets of Fes; Jason wearing a Jellabiya and waving to the passing Niger desert traffic; jumping on Captain Gus' barge to glide down the Congo River and escape the truck. Wherever you travel to now Jason may the gentle savannah breeze be at your back..and there always be good food to sample Lillian, Pierce, Hugo and Kent my deepest and heartfelt sympathies to you all. Now you are at rest Jason nenda kwa amani Rafiki yangu (Go peacefully my friend). Maria.
