Priscilla Ann Young

Priscilla Ann Young (Fuller), age 83, passed away on August 21, 2024, in Essex, Vermont. Born on May 1, 1941, in Richmond, Vermont, she was a vibrant presence known for her outgoing and gregarious personality. Throughout her life, Priscilla embraced the joys of social engagement-whether it was playing games like bowling, bingo, shuffleboard, trying her luck at the casino, or hosting gatherings centered around her delicious home-cooked meals.

Priscilla dedicated much of her career to nurturing her family as a homemaker and also worked as a waitress, in hospitality, and as a secretary for Joe Young and Sons Logging. Later on, she embraced the snowbird life, her homes in Waterbury Center, Vermont and Orange City, Florida were a welcoming hub of activity, love, and laughter, reflective of her warm spirit and generosity.

She is survived by a loving family that includes her sons, Joseph Young Jr. and wife Patricia, Michael Young and wife Christl, and Timothy Young; daughter, Sarah Allen and husband Roy; siblings, Shirley Lamson, Sandra Auger, and Andrew Fuller Jr. Priscilla was a cherished grandmother to Joseph Young III, Jason Young, Jennifer Larson, Crystal Young, Corey Young, Nicole Young, Candace Kime, Ryan Niblett, Eric Allen, and Alexander Allen; and a great-grandmother to Lilah Young, Bode Larson, Mila Larson, Olivia Hood, Lily Miller, Sophie Logan, Gavin Grantham, Lane Kime, and Devon Allen.

Priscilla was preceded in death by her husband of 44 years, Joseph Young Sr; Bernard Woodard her companion of over 15 years, her parents, Andrew Fuller and Loretta Champney; and her siblings, Charles Fuller, Donald Fuller, Rodney Fuller, William Fuller, Raymond Fuller, Leona Lamson, and Alberta Felton.
