Rodger "Darrell" Fleetwood, age 88, a native of Jackson County, Indiana and a resident of Freetown, Indiana, passed away on Wednesday, October 11, 2023 at Hoosier Christian Village. He was born on May 21, 1935 to the late Hayden Fleetwood and the late Anna (Anderson) Fleetwood. Rodger was a faithful member of Freetown Church of Christ for over 40 years. He will be remembered as a shy man that had a little jokester side to him. He was an excellent provider, hard worker who never complained. He was extremely protective of his family and loved them dearly, especially his grand and great grandchildren. Rodger loved motorcycles, especially taking motorcycle trips with his son. He was a member of the GWRRA Association. He enjoyed gardening and keeping his yard perfectly manicured. Rodger will forever be remembered for his famous peanut butter fudge.
