The way you have loved, protected, and supported me through all of life’s ups and downs is something I will forever be grateful for.”

She continued, “You’ve been my biggest cheerleader from the day I met you, always pushing me to chase any dream I’ve ever set for myself (& are always by my side to help in any way needed.) You are soft and patient with me in moments of uncertainty, always making your first priority to put me at ease and letting me know everything will be ok. And on our very normal, boring days, you always find a way to keep our home filled with laughter and love.”

Fletcher further gushed about Rodgers, calling him “kind, hardworking, passionate, loyal, so funny and witty [and] reliable.”
