Margaret June Fletcher

Margaret “Pegi” Fletcher (née Graham), whom we knew and loved as mother, grandmother, wife, sister, family and friend, left us peacefully in her sleep on April 19, 2024, aged 77 years. Born in North Bay, ON on May 30, 1946, she was raised in Sault Ste Marie, the eldest of 3 children. Pegi married her high school sweetheart, John Sr. in 1967. Following jobs, they moved back and forth across the country a couple of times and raised their children, Anne, Celia and John Jr. in both northern Ontario and Richmond, BC. After Pegi lost John Sr. in 1992, she moved into Vancouver where she nurtured her love of cooking, gardening, history and house renovating/decorating. She was an avid fan of anything Italy, and made several memorable trips there. Family was always central to her life and Pegi adored gatherings of all kinds, especially FleMilRads with extended family. She spent the last 12 years of her life in Victoria where had an active role in her grandchildren’s lives.

Pegi will be greatly missed, and left to cherish her memory are her three children, Ann-Marie Fletcher, Celia (David) Reimer and John (Christi) Fletcher; grandchildren, Julian Fletcher, Charlie & Jackie Reimer, Kiran & Graham Fletcher; siblings, Nancy Jean (Hank) Dukes, and Cliff (Susan) Graham; sisters-in-law, Karen (Howard) Bishop, Noella Depew, and Ruth (Ward) Fletcher, beloved cousins, many nieces, nephews and friends. Pegi was predeceased by her husband John Sr., her parents, Joyce and Murray Graham and her sister-in-law, Barbara MacKay.

A small gathering to honour the life of Pegi will be held May 11, 2024 in Vancouver. Donations in lieu of flowers should be made to Médecins sans Frontières.
