Although I only met Margie on a few occasions - through my sister-in-law, Candace, her daughter - she made a great impression on me with her gracious and interesting personality. It was fascinating and impressive to hear about her life and the lasting impression she left on her pupils. She was clearly a well-loved and inspirational teacher and lady. A life well-lived and now, a rest well-deserved. We send our warmest love and sympathy to all her family.God Bless you, Margie xx

Diane, Candy, and Phillip, I have so many fond memories of Margie and our years working together at PNGHS, and here is one of my favorites. As UIL sponsors we made many trips together. She almost always had students advancing to state, and a couple of times I was fortunate to have speech, prose, or poetry winners. Once, we traveled by car, and Margie was driving. Some of the students and I started singing songs from musicals. Margie said she never sang because one of her elementary teachers had told her her voice was too low to sing with the other students. I said, "Well, you're going to sing, now." and we did. We sang all the songs we knew from favorite shows. We sang until we were driving the kids crazy. We had so much fun, and the trip seemed much shorter. I don't have to tell you how much she loved you three and all the grands, and she was so proud of you. You were blessed to have her as your mom, and I was blessed that she was my friend. Love to all of you.

To Dianne, Candace, & Phillip...to the world your mom may have just been a teacher, but to her students she was a hero. Her passion for teaching was matched only by her compassion for her students. She was certainly a special person and I feel lucky that I had the pleasure of knowing her. Your mom will always hold a special place in all our hearts. With caring thoughts and my sincerest sympathy...

Mrs. fuller was my high school English teacher at PNG. She was a really good English teacher but more importantly she was fair and kind. She could be tough too. There are teachers you have whom you'll always remember and Mrs. Fuller is that teacher for me. You all will be in my prayers.

Candy. It was in your mothers class where my husband asked me out on our first date. She made him stand up in the front of the class and repeat what he was saying,which had interrupted her class. He said " I am trying to get Annette to go out with me". We were married 35 yrs before his death. I will never forget Mrs. Fuller!! Annette Barrows and the late Dawson Barrows

Candy, Rachel, and Wes families, Your precious mom and grandmother touched so many lives, and her passion for life and learning were always evident. I remember some of our short chats on the driveway, and her love for her children and grandchildren just made her light up. She cared about her students and was always a big supporter in their projects. Mrs. Fuller was a significant influence in others lives as well. She and my Mom were part of the "lunch bunch" at PNG, and she was a great friend. Please know that our family loves and cares about you, and you all are in our thoughts and prayers.

Mrs. Fuller was a wonderful teacher, proud of the school she taught, and encouraging to us all. I was in her English Class the day in 1963 when there was an announcement that President Kennedy had been assassinated. She was badly shaken up, and many of the students were as well. I remember she treated all of us with sensitivity, giving up class time for wrapping our heads around this tragic event. That day her humanity shined like a star. What a wonderful woman/mother/teacher.

So sorry to hear of Mrs. Fuller's passing. She was a lovely person and wonderful teacher. I was one of a great many students who thought she hung the moon. I, like most of her former students, have many fond memories of her. She is no doubt organizing a card section of angels in heaven. RIP sweet lady. PN-G Class of 1966

I had Mrs. Fuller for English, I also played football and she would have us over to keep us out of trouble and it worked. But to tell the truth her daughter was there some of the times and was easy on the eyes. I was not her best student, but she did help me a lot and have me and Kim Slawson do a skit to help us sale home coming candy, I don't think it worked because we never had a home coming Queen, we had other things on our mind instead of going out and selling candy. I had a lot of fun in her class, but it really didn't show up in my grades. She was a great an loving teacher and a wonderful person. Now I am sorry I never went back when I got out of the Marine Corps and let her know I made it back from Vietnam. She has touch so many lives and help so many students, as I said before she was a great person and teacher. May God bless your family, I was the one blessed by getting to know and loving Mrs. Fuller. She will always be in my memories. 1967 Grad.

Mrs. Fuller asked me to be her Editor-in-Chief of The Pow Wow in 1967, her first year as a journalism teacher & an honor I still carry. We had fun learning how to publish a newspaper but she also taught me many life lessons. She was indeed my favorite teacher & for students to remember a teacher as fondly & lovingly as so many of us do Mrs. Fuller over 45 years later speaks volumes as to the incredible lady she was. My prayers to all her family.

In 1962, while we were sophomores in Mrs Fuller's English class, my friend Charley Sutton's mom died. Mrs. Fuller stepped in almost as Charley's mom. She provided love and guidance for him in a very special, caring way. Our senior year, we began a 50 year celebration of the Great Pumpkin which included our 3 children at Halloween and Christmas. It has been a great privilige to share her love and caring. God Bless each of you as remember and celebrate the good times with your mom.
