She earned a master's degree in religious education from Mundelein College and had worked for the church for the past 25 years, the last 12 years as the pastoral associate for St. Margaret Mary Parish in Algonquin. A terrific writer, she wrote a syndicated column called "Slings, Arrows, and Owies" in the 1970s. She worked very hard caring for her husband, who suffered from diabetes and other complications.

Survivors include two sons, the Rev. Michael Fuller of Mundelein Seminary and David (Tracie) Fuller of McHenry; and two grandchildren, Jacob and Devon. She was preceded in death by her husband, Ron, in 1999.
