Gene Fuller Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Baxter Funeral & Cremation Service on Feb. 16, 2026.
Gene Fuller, 60, of Wayland Michigan passed away on February 10, 2026 in Wayland, Michigan. Gene was born in Allegan, Michigan to Irvin and Peggy (Sayles) Fuller.

Gene was preceded in death by his parents, Irvin and Peggy Fuller; sister, Chris Manns; and granddaughter, Gabriella Griffin.

Gene was known for his loving personality and how he was always willing to help others if he could. He loved to spend time with his family and friends, listening to music and having drinks. It was very seldom if you seen Gene, he didn't have a drink in his hand and a smile on his face. In his younger years, Gene was very knowledgeable about cars and loved working on them.

Gene is survived by his daughter, Jamie Vanstee; grandson, Kayden Griffin; siblings, Melinda (Jimmy) Sutherland, Ricky Fuller, Deb (Nelson) Terry, Brenda (Charles) Bixler; as well as many nieces and nephews.

A luncheon will be held at a later date when the cremation process has been completed.
