FULLER, Matthew Cory Died June 17, 2006 after a long, courageous battle with C.M.L. leukemia. Matthew passed away peacefully on Saturday, June 17, 2006 at Stanford University Hospital, surrounded by his loving family members. Born October 31, 1974 in Hayward, CA (our Halloween Goblin), Cory attended grade schools and high school in Sonoma County, graduating from Rancho Cotate High in Rohnert Park and continuing his education at Santa Rosa Junior College. Cory loved sports and was active and participated in football, basketball, and baseball throughout his school years. He was a member of the Championship 1994 Santa Rosa Junior College football team. Cory is survived by his mother and father, Glen and Melody Fuller of Penngrove, CA; an older brother, Chad Fuller of Rohnert Park, CA; a younger sister, Melissa Fuller of Penngrove, CA. He is also survived by his grandparents, Millard Buxton of Forest Grove, OR and Lillian Lewis and step-granddad Hal Lewis of Rohnert Park, CA. Cory was preceded in death by his grandmother, Shirley Buxton of Forest Grove, OR. Cory is also survived by numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins. Just 31 years old, Cory packed a lot of living into his brief life. Cory loved life and loved people and always enjoyed an opportunity for good times. He will be greatly missed.

My prayers are with the Fuller family. I never officially met Cory. But I have known Glenn and Chad for many years from High School and working together at Bekins. Both of them are very stand up people, so I am sure it ran in the family and from the words in this book, that is true of Cory as well. I very sorry to hear of your loss.

I was so shocked to read of Cory's passing. My heart goes out to your family. I grew up with Chad and Cory in the Pop Warner days. I always enjoyed watching Melissa run around and play at the field. Mrs. Fuller you were always so kind. I will always remember Cory's sweet bashful grin when we were young. My deepest sympathies to you and your husband. May god wrap you up in his grace.

Dear Glen and Melody,



Although we never met Cory personally, if he was anything like his father he must have been a VERY special young man. It has been a pleasure working and knowing you, Glen through the years.



Very proud parents ALWAYS seem to mention their children at some point in a conversation, and Glen you always have.



Know that Cory's joy for life will give you the very best memories.



Our deepest sympathy to your family.
