Donna Fuller Obituary
Donna Jean Fuller, 68 years young, went home to be with the Lord in the early morning hours of May 15, 2025 in Longview, Texas. Born on October 15, 1956 in Henderson, Texas, she was the daughter of the late Dorothy Pierce and Olan Grant.
Donna first made her mark at Deer Park High School, graduate class of 1975, where she was well-known for her basketball skills and free spirit. That vibrant, determined nature stayed with her throughout her life. She spent over 40 years working at Texas Eastman, where her dedication and work ethic made her a valued colleague and friend.
An avid lover of the outdoors, Donna found joy in fishing, hiking, skiing, and camping-turning even simple outings into adventures. She loved listening to music and dancing with her grandchildren. Donna was dubbed as the "42 Champion" of the family, bringing her favorite game of dominoes to family gatherings. She had an incredible ability to make the best of any situation and brought laughter, fun, and warmth wherever she went. Her independent spirit was matched only by her boundless generosity and compassion. She lived to take care of others, always putting her children and grandchildren at the center of her world.
Known as "Momma Donna" to many, Donna was a truly selfless and remarkable mother. She did not just support her children-she championed them, sacrificed for them, and loved them fiercely and unconditionally. Her legacy lives on in the values she instilled and the lives she shaped.
She is survived by her children, sons Reggie Hendry and Bobby Don Fuller Jr, as well as her daughter Whitney Alvestad. She was a proud grandmother and was also loved by many nieces and nephews. Donna's memory will be cherished by her surviving sisters, Gail Love, Linda Skaggs, Windy Savering, and Cindy Guettler.
Donna's life will be honored in a private ceremony with close family and friends to share stories, laughter, and forever cherished memories.
Donna Jean Fuller will be remembered as a woman who loved deeply, gave endlessly, and lived fully. Her presence will be missed more than words can express.
