There will be a visitation on Monday November 28th at McConnell Funeral Home from 6-8pm. His family will be having a Celebration of Life, during his favorite time of year, in the warmer months of 2023.
He is survived by his wife, Juli Rogers; son, Sean Fuller; granddaughter, Braylie Fuller; long time friend, Christie Fuller; and his cousin Becky Buckler.
Preceding him in death are his parents, and sister Elizabeth Ivy.
