Philip Fulmer Obituary

Philip “Chip” Fulmer, 64, passed away at his Jeffersonville home surrounded by loved ones on Tuesday May 19th. He is survived by his wife, Pam, three daughters, Christina, Laura, and Brittney, 12 grandchildren, Jordan, Lexi, Zeke, Chloe, Sean, Dredyn, Montana, Cammie, Shay, Mariah, AJ, and Alasia, his mother, Shirley, two brothers, Raymond Jr “Skip” and Keith, two sisters, Beth and Wendy, and all of his beloved nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his father, Earl. Chip was born on May 27, 1955 in Norristown Pennsylvania to the late Raymond Earl Fulmer Sr and Shirley Fulmer-Groomes. He was a 1973 graduate of Methacton High School and Montgomery County Vocational Technical School where he acquired his love of all things masonry. He spent 1975-1978 in the US Army as Sargent Specialist 5 and 1978-1981 in the Reserves. He spent the next 35 years working in the construction and masonry fields and loved the fact that those buildings would stand for ages. In his spare time, he loved gardening, growing vegetables and flowers, and spent many hours “relaxing” with mulch. After a back injury forced him to stop working, he found a love of Texas Hold’em, which included his true passion of socializing with everyone. He was a member of Fairview Village Church of the Nazarene, where he loved helping to set up the annual Christmas extravaganza. He also enjoyed serving on the Board of The Greens of Westover. In lieu of flowers, Chip requested that donations be sent to the Cure JM Foundation (www.curejm.org), supporting his great-niece, Brynn Fulmer.

I remember Chip and all the Fulmer's so well from my growing up years. The boys were always full of mischief and fun. Your memories and those of all who knew him will keep him alive in your hearts.

I just found out today of Chips passing. I would like to send my condolences to Pam and all of his family. Chip we never got to go out for breakfast as we planned the last time we spoke. My comfort comes in knowing you are no longer suffering my friend. I will always cherish our last conversation and the things we talked about. We talked about our health issues, and how life sometimes just doesn't seem fair. The hand that God deals us is sometimes hard to understand and especially to play. You played it well my friend, with class, dignity, and understanding. I love you like a brother. And we will do that breakfast someday.

Have many memories from our childhood. Took years before I knew his actual name wasn't Chip. I know he grew up to be a good man, and a fine example to all the young people in your family. My thoughts are with you Aunt Shirley and all your family.
