Dennis was my Uncle and I am so sorry for family and friends at his passing. I pray he is in Eternal Peace with his brother that he loved so much, Andy aka "AJ" (Andrew Fulmer) my Father.

God bless Coach Fulmer. I have thought and spoken of him most days since he coached me in football and life
at Jacksonville HS, ‘62, 63, 64. Taught me discipline and toughness that I needed.

Wanda and Denny,
We are deeply saddened to learn of Coach Fulmer's passing. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. God Bless you all. Romans 8:28
There are no words to describe what a wonderful man Dennis was. I worked for the Faulkner County Board of REALTORS and we rented our office space from Dennis and Wanda. We shared a lot of fun times the 13 years I was there before retiring. From bringing their kitties down when it would storm and Wanda would come check on me because I worked in front of the big windows. I was so blessed to make two very special friends. Dennis showed me how to put carpet together he was amazing at making rugs. You will be greatly missed.
Our deepest sympathy for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers for the family.
He helped grow many fine young men. Coach Fulmer believed in his students and would only settle for their best. We are better for being under his influence.
Deepest sympathy for your loss. We have never met but I have been working on the Fulmer genealogy and Dennis’s grandfather was my grandfathers brother. Prayers for your family.
