David Ray Fullerton, a beloved figure in the hearts of many, departed this world on August 3, 2025, at the age of 74. Born on December 22, 1950, in Jackson, Tennessee, David was destined to make an indelible mark on those fortunate enough to cross his path.
Educated at Beech Bluff High School, David ventured forth into adulthood with a passion and dedication that would define his professional life as a sales representative. His career was characterized by an unwavering commitment to excellence and an innate ability to connect with others, ensuring he was well-regarded in his field.
David's life outside of work was a tapestry intricately woven with love, creativity, and selflessness. He was a man of diverse interests, eternally captivated by the realms of technology and craftsmanship. Additionally, woodworking was a cherished pursuit; he found profound joy in creating intricate pieces and engaging in new projects. A kinship with nature was also prominent in David's life. He reveled in the tranquility of gardening and cherished the quiet moments spent on the golf course.
David held immense pride in his family. His love for his wife, children, and grandchildren knew no bounds, as he devoted himself to raising them and later stepping in as a loving figure in the lives of his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Left to cherish his memory is his wife, Dorothy Wright; children, Teresa Brown (Robert, Jr.), John Fullerton (Brandy), James Fullerton (Misty), and Joshua Wright (Susan); a host of grandchildren and great-grandchildren; sisters, Sandra Britt (Elmer), Wanda Kidd (Jack), and Beth Fullerton (Katie); and several nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, Claude and Gearline Fullerton.
