Gloria Burnet Fletcher, 88, passed away on Dec. 27, 2020, at the CVPH Medical Center in Plattsburgh.
Born on June 10, 1932, in Tupper Lake, she was the youngest daughter of the late Liva (Payment) and Fred Burnet.
Gloria married Douglas Fletcher on Sept. 11, 1950. They enjoyed 65 years together before his passing in 2015. Together they enjoyed horseback riding, traveling on vacations and watching their grandchildren play at various sporting events and attending their concerts. Gloria was an active 4-H Leader, teaching girls in Lake Clear and Tupper Lake skills of sewing and knitting. She enjoyed cross-country skiing with family and friends.
Later they moved to Potsdam, where family remained very important to her as she hosted countless family holidays and get-togethers. She was often the last one to leave the table, as she was too busy talking about her grandchildren’s latest accomplishments including how she saw her great-grandchildren singing songs on the iPad.
