Paul Richard Fuller
On Saturday, March 7, 2026, Paul passed away peacefully at home after a courageous 3½-year battle with multiple myeloma. He was a beloved father, grandfather, husband, and friend whose kindness, laughter, and larger-than-life presence touched everyone who knew him.
Paul “Rick” was born on January 24, 1960, in Olean, New York, to Delores Hess (Herd) and Paul Fuller. From a young age he had a love for music and singing. Anyone who knew him knew how much he loved to sing—and he was truly amazing at it. His voice and love for music brought joy to so many people throughout his life.
He was the kind of man who could light up any room he walked into. Known for his warm heart, big personality, and ability to make people laugh, he lived his life with generosity, loyalty, and deep love for his family.
He is survived by his loving wife, Charlotte, who stood by his side with devotion and care throughout his illness. Together they shared love, companionship, and many meaningful years.
To his daughter, he was more than just a father—he was a best friend and lifelong protector. A proud girl dad, he spent countless hours taking her to practices, sharing music, and supporting her in every stage of life. Their bond was unbreakable, and the love between them was something truly special.
One of the greatest joys of his life was becoming Papa to his two grandsons. He adored those boys and was endlessly proud of them. Whether cheering them on at their sporting events, spending time together on overnights, or simply making them laugh, he treasured every moment with them. To them, he wasn’t just their grandfather—he was their biggest fan and their hero.
Despite the challenges he faced during his illness, he showed incredible strength and courage throughout his fight with multiple myeloma.
Though our hearts are broken, we take comfort in knowing he is now at peace and no longer suffering.
He was the kind of man whose presence made people feel welcome, whose voice could fill a room with music, and whose love for his family was unwavering. The world feels a little quieter without his laughter in it, but the memories he gave us will echo in our hearts forever.
He will be deeply missed, forever loved, and never forgotten.
Survived by his wife Charlotte, His Daughter Sumer (Marcus, Paul's best friend), two grandchildren Mason & Myles and bonus sons Sam and Andrew, his Mother Delores Hess (Paul) his sister Debbie Webb (Paul) & Brother Jeffrey Fuller (Susie). Also loved by his in laws, many nieces, nephews & friends.
Celebration of life will be at a later date.
