I'm so sorry Patricia about the death of Chicky. I worked at Sikorsky with him. My nickname was the Hulk and he and I used to laugh all the time everyday. I worked at Sikorsky in Bridgeport from 1977 to 1981 and then I left and went to AVCO/Lycoming in Stratford. He was such a great guy and he used to make me laugh all the time. He used to say "If we both weigh the same how come we don't look the same?" Me being 6'2 and he was 5 ft something? I lost touch with Chicky obviously over the years as I left Sikorsky and every now and then I think of someone and I type their name in on the internet and see what's going on and I found the obituary, so again my condolences to you Patricia and all your family and Chickie's friends.
Sincerely
John Marfiak

Dear Fulton Family,
I am so very sorry to hear of the passing of Mr. Fulton although I can´t think of him and not smile. There is simply not space to write it all down. From Santa to Yasser Arafat to Garfield to cold nights in the garage and hot days on the porch...There was Atari in the back room with the kerosene heater, Christmas and Bingo, the bait store and more.... the memories go on and on. I don´t know how either Mr. or Mrs. Fulton put up with all of us hanging around at the house so much, but I am so glad they did! Mr. Fulton had special way about him. He was DEFINITELY the life of the party, but he also maintained the respect of our generation. He could and would hang out with us and we looked forward to it, but make no mistake, "Chick" to turn into "Mr. Fulton" in hurry! That was a lesson I had hoped to apply to my own kids upbringing, that is being relaxed and friendly with them, but still retain the role of paren. Quite the balancing act! I doubt I did as good a job. Mr. Fulton was a good man and he will be missed by many, but for me it´s as if light was dimmed on the memories of my childhood. My very deepest condolences to all, of course.


Love,

John Martinsky

My condolences to the Fulton family. Chick was truly one of the "good guys". If you entered a room and a bunch of people were laughing, chances were high that Chick was at the center of it. He will be truly missed.

Growing up and having Mr. Fulton as a neighbor was a treat. My sister and I would hang out over there so often. He had a big heart and a great sense of humor. I remember him always imitating my laugh and making all of us laugh even harder. My prayers go out to Pat, Chris & Christine.
