Warren D. Fuller

1932 - 2017

DORSET - Warren Davis Fuller, born March 30, 1932, to Barbara and Frank Fuller of Springfield, MA, died at home June 6, 2017. He was a graduate of Classical High School and Middlebury College, 1954, with a combined English and psychology major. During his college years, he played football, co-captained the tennis team and enjoyed skiing. He wrote for the college newspaper and had a radio DJ program. He was a member of DU and the Blue Key. He helped write and direct an original musical ("Just Around the Corner Is Love") and his real highlight was meeting classmate Nancy Stevens, and they married in 1954.
Warren served two years in the Army Signal Corps at Fort Benning, GA, before joining Connecticut General Life Insurance Co. in December 1957.
Over Warren's 35-year career, he worked for the health care insurance industry in several management positions. Over the years, he and his family relocated from Hartford, CT, to Columbia, MD, and to Villanova, PA, before retiring to Landgrove, VT, in 1992. For 10 years, Warren was president and CEO of Howard Research & Development, the Connecticut General/Rouse joint corporate venture which created the new City of Columbia, MD. Warren's final eight years were spent as president and CEO of IntraCorp, a national health care subsidiary of CIGNA.
Since retiring, he had been a board member and president of the Mountain Valley Medical Center in Londonderry, VT, selectman and board chair of Landgrove, VT, finance committee member of Springfield Hospital, VT, and served as governor president and trustee of Ekwanok Golf Club, Manchester, VT.
Warren was a devoted family man and friend. He loved fishing and hunting trips with close friends and passionately followed his sports teams. He particularly enjoyed flying and proudly had his instrument-rated pilot's license. He was an avid skier, golfer and loved all of the racquet sports. Not a day passed without his morning routine of coffee, the paper and the completion of the NYT crossword puzzle.
Warren leaves his wife, Nancy; a daughter, Lee; a son-in-law, Jock; a grandson, Alex; a granddaughter, Phoebe; and an adopted son, Peter, and daughter, Sarah. He was predeceased by both parents and five children.
A private family service will inter him in Landgrove, VT, cemetery. In lieu of flowers, please remember the Mountain Valley Medical Clinic, Londonderry, VT, c/o Brewster-Shea Funeral Services, P.O.
