Not sure what to say?

Cant help but notice you are missing. The neighborhood has never been the same.

COL Fuller was my first battalion commander and commissioned me as a 2LT into the Army. I will always remember his leadership and the guidance given in his deep calm voice. He was a lasting inspiration to this and many other young Soldiers.

Col. Fuller was my former commanding officer. He was a terrific man, and supported my efforts to go to officer candidate school. I was very proud to have such a distinguished officer present me with my first Army Commendation Medal. My condolences to his family and friends

Peggy and Family,
It has almost been a month and it seems like Cornell has been gone from us a lot longer. We miss him so with the Va Camping Cardinal family. We look forward to seeing you from time to time at the campouts.
Be encouraged.

On behalf of the Family of the late Capt Harold A Rolle fellow Vietnam Vet, your husband will be sorely missed. He was one of the kindest neighbors, and helped mentor my two children. I realized something had happened when he was not out there in the yard after his last camping trip. He no longer has to suffer and now he can find eternal peace.

Oh my God...where do I start ? I met Mr. Fuller as I was a member of Tallwood HS custodian staff. He and I started speaking to one another then after a while just started talking about everything from my family to life itself each and everytime we saw each other. He was like a father to me and inspired me to inspire my daughter and as well as myself. I will always remember he told me "quote it was my responsibility to keep a roof over my daughter head, food on the table, clothes on her back...

Cornell Fuller was truly a distinguished man and exemplary community servant in Virginia Beach. A man of honor. Thank you for your service to your country and your city. My sincere prayers to the Fuller Family. Thank you for sharing your father, husband and brother as he gave his time and talents with the Virginia Beach NAACP, Friendship Patrol, local schools and other organizations in the city of Virginia Beach. May the love of all who this great servant served comfort each family member.

Peggy and family,
Sorry to hear of your loss. I remember fondly all of our years at Brandon and Tallwood. Always willing to volunteer. He will be missed. Our deepest condolences.
