Erwin Ellwood Fuller

1930 - 2017

Erwin Ellwood Fuller, 86, of Port Hadlock passed away on April 20, 2017.

Erwin was born on June 1, 1930, in Batavia, New York, to LaVerne and Corinne Fuller.

A graduate of Pasadena City College and Los Angeles Trade-Technical College, Erwin went on to honorably serve his country in the U.S. Air Force.

Erwin married the love of his life, Winnifred "Winky" Fuller, on April 20, 1952, in Pasadena, California.

Erwin enjoyed a career in Hollywood as a character actor spanning 25 years and 42 years as a photographer. He played a variety of roles in both movies and television. He acted in "Cheers," "Murder She Wrote," "Matlock," "Dukes of Hazard," "Dallas," just to name a few.

Erwin's hobbies included photography, old movie trivia, garage sales with his friend Hal and helping with the Kala Point newsletter. He spent hours on the computer perfecting each photo he took, each one a work of art.

Erwin was preceded in death by his wife of 60 years, Winky; sisters Dorothy, Elaine and Eunice; and brother LaVerne.

Erwin leaves behind his brother Mark Fuller of Bakersfield, California; sister Avis Henderson of Carson City, Nevada; cousins, nieces, nephews and friends; and his beloved cat, Fu.

We will miss his wit and humor and his kind heart. We rejoice in knowing that Erwin believed in Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior.

There will be a memorial on Saturday, May 27, 2017, at 3 p.m. at the Kala Point clubhouse, 310 Sailview Drive, Port Townsend.

Donations may be made in Erwin's memory to the Jefferson County Humane Society, P.O. Box 845, Port Hadlock, WA 98339.
