RIP Bob Fletcher, hero

2014-12-11 18:59:21.160866+00 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Bob Fletcher Dies at 101; Helped Japanese-Americans:

For the next three years he worked a total of 90 acres on three farms — he had also decided to run Mr. Tsukamoto’s farm. He worked 18-hour days and lived in the bunkhouse Mr. Tsukamoto had reserved for migrant workers. He paid the bills of all three families — the Tsukamotos, the Okamotos and the Nittas. He kept only half of the profits.
