He is preceded in death by his parents, Milo and June Fullerton. He is survived by his wife Beth, brothers Kenneth of Tacoma, WA and Richard of Tenino, WA, his 6 children and numerous grandchildren and great grandchildren, as well as many nieces and nephews. The family would like to thank the staff at Riverside Nursing and Rehabilitation in Centralia for taking care of him and providing him with love and support through 2020, as well as the wonderful nurses on the COVID floor at Providence St. Peters Hospital in Olympia.
