Barbara Fuller Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Leeside Funeral Home on Jan. 6, 2026.
Barbara Jean Fuller was born on October 12, 1943, in Greenville, South Carolina, to the late Mary White Westfield and the late Willie Westfield. She was educated in the Spartanburg County School District.

Barbara was known for her feisty disposition and vibrant personality. She had a creative spirit and found great joy in crafting. She enjoyed watching cooking shows, listening to music, and never missed an opportunity to share a laugh. A true jokester at heart, Barbara had a way of lighting up a room with her humor and wit. Her favorite color was green, a reflection of her lively and spirited nature. She was a faithful member of Macedonia Baptist Church.

She was preceded in death by her parents; her beloved husband of nine years, James Fuller; her daughters, Sara Talley and Joyce Drummond; and her sister, Margaret Miller.

Left to honor and cherish her life and legacy are her children, Randy Drummond of Spartanburg, South Carolina, and Roylynette Lyles of Newport News, Virginia; her grandchildren, Ladavia Just, Helena Drummond, and Jakara Bradley; six great grandchildren; and a host of nieces, nephews, other relatives, and friends.

On Monday, January 5, 2026, Barbara Jean Fuller transitioned peacefully at Spartanburg Regional Hospice Home. She will be deeply and sorely missed by all who knew and loved her.
