Gerald Fulton Obituary

Gerald ""Jerry"" ""Big G"" Fulton entered into the Kingdom of Heaven on May 13, 2016 at the age of 60. Leaving behind the love of his life, Sharon T. Fulton, and three loving daughters, Kelly, Stacey and Tracey (Sean). Grandfather-to-be to Baby Vanhuss. Son of the late Walter Fulton, Sr. and Anna Mae Fulton. Brother of Walter Fulton, Jr. (Donna), Darlene Pilet (Jerry) and Judy Lund. Beloved mother-in-law, Patricia Thibodeaux and father-in-law, the late Walter J. Thibodeaux. Brother-in-law of Karen Aitken (James) and Terry Leveque (Henri). Along with a host of nieces, nephews, and dear friends. Jerry lived life to the fullest. He was the most generous and loving person. His mission in life was to put a smile on everyone's face – and he did just that with his notorious humor and his contagious passion for life. He will be loved and missed by all who knew him. Relatives and friends of the family are invited to attend the Funeral Mass at ST. MARY MAGDALEN CHURCH, 6425 West Metairie Avenue, Metairie, on Friday afternoon, May 20, 2016 at 2:30. Visitation will begin in church at 11:30 in the morning. Jerry always joked that he was ""the most unlucky person"" so it is fitting that he ""rolled out"" on Friday the 13th! He doesn't want tears to be shed, but wants to be remembered as the life of the party. He was simply the best! In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the American Heart Association, PO Box 840692, Dallas, TX 75284-0692. Also, please honor his request by voting for Donald Trump! An online guestbook is available at www.leitzeaganfuneralhome.com.

Jerry I will miss you more than words can say, but I will always feel peace that you made a good life for you and your family. Sharon and girls, I want to say thank you for giving the love to my brother that he truly deserved in life. Baby Vanhuss your paw paw was a wonderful man and he was so proud of everybody in his life.

Dear Aunt Sharon, Kelly, Stacey and Tracey,
My heart breaks for your family during this tragic time. I know there are no words that I can say to provide you with the comfort as I wish I could. I know that he will be watching over you and wanting you to live just as he did. I remember growing up that you had the BEST New Year's party's, the best laughs and the best time everywhere you went. I am sorry that as time moves on and I no longer live close I was not able to be a part of your lives. Even so, I love you all and will pray for you to have peace.
Love,
Kate

Mr. Jerry was one of a kind. Wonderful husband, father and friend. Growing up at SMM, I would always see him volunteering and helping the school in any way he could. Always with a smile on his face. He will be missed. I will continue to pray that God wraps you all in his arms and carries you through this very difficult time.
