A couple things I want to remember about her is how loving and optimistic she is. I remember feeling so loved by her from the first moment I met her. The day I married Michael she told me how she felt as though I had always been apart of the family and how she just felt as though I was already one of her granddaughters. She was also always so complimentary and encouraging with anything and everything.
Another thing I always loved about being around Grandma Fuller was how excited she was about life. The first time I spent much time with her was just after Michael and I were married we went to South Carolina for Christmas and to have another wedding reception there. Grandma Fuller talked about how exciting it was that we were having so many parties and activities, the reception, Cathrine and her birthday, shopping, Christmas ext. Even the ordinary activities were exciting on her list. I remember thinking at her age it seems as though any of the activities we were doing would be kindof old to..because of how many times she had done all of them in her lifetime, but Grandma Fuller found joy and excitement in all of them.
The funeral was lovely. I always enjoy going to funerals because of the spirit there, you can often feel the spirit of those that have left and not only that but they are very inspirational as you learn about all the good the person has done. I was grateful that Michael and I were able to play our violins together. I love being able to play with Michael and also I know how much Grandma Fuller loved music and more especially loved to hear her decedents playing music.
