Obituary of Clifford Wayne Fullerton
Clifford Wayne Fullerton aka Wayne Fullerton 1943 - 2009
Clifford Wayne Fullerton, also known as Wayne Fullerton, was born on June 5, 1943 and passed away on Friday, July 31, 2009 in Dawson Creek Hospital. Wayne was predeceased by his father Norman and his mother Alice. He is survived by his wife Willa, his sisters Joyce, Norma, and Sheila, and their spouses, Slim Wilson, Ed Nock, and Glen McCoy, respectively.
Wayne was blessed with a large extended family including many nieces, nephews, step children, grandchildren, great nieces and great nephews whom he loved and cherished. Wayne was raised on the family farm in the Sunnybrook area and attended schools at the Sunny brook School. It was in this setting that he developed his great passion for anything out doors. He loved nature and spent as much time as possible close to it. Hunting, fishing, and exploring, were his favorite pastimes. His transport of choice ranged from horses, to pickups to Terra Jets, snowmobiles, Argos and finally his quad which he continued to ride right up to a few days before he passed away.
Wayne was a man of many talents including: playing guitar, singing and an artistic talent for wood work.
Above all Wayne loved his family and friends and enjoyed spending time with them either at work or at play.
Wayne had a wonderful sense of humor and it seemed to be heightened when either sitting around a camp fire or in front of a hockey game on Saturday night.
Wayne was an incredibly humble man and never believed that his talents measured up and was always able to find fault with any of his creations either with his hands or his voice, even though those of us who were blessed with his talents would disagree. Fortunately we are left with the fruits of these talents whether it is a piece of his handy work or a recording of his beautiful voice. These pieces of Wayne will continue on to help us first cope with this great loss and then remember this wonderful husband, and brother and friend.
Inurnment was held on Wednesday August 12, 2009 at Brookside Cemetery in Dawson Creek, British Columbia.
