Obituary For Edna Fuller Lee
On January 2, 1926 (Inez), Edna Fuller Lee was the 7th born child to Willie Alonza Fuller and Fannie Taylor Fuller (both deceased) in Pittsylvania County, Callands, Va. When Edna was a teenager, the Fuller Family moved to Henry County, Martinsville, Va. There, she completed her education and went to work for 15 years as a Machine Operator and Assistant Floor Lady at Jobbers Pants.
In November 1958, Edna moved to New Rochelle, New York, where she began working as a Domestic Engineer, maintaining and managing several households, including those of the Potters and the Hawkins. These families have shifted from employers to devoted friends over a 60+ year relationship. While in New Rochelle, she met the love of her life, Samuel Lee (deceased). She and Sam were devoted members of Shiloh Baptist Church in New Rochelle, N.Y., where she served on the Flower Guild.
She is preceded in death by her mother and father, Willie and Fannie Fuller, siblings Onyx Clarence Fuller, Mildred Elizabeth Fuller Harris, Sadie Augusta Fuller Warrington, Ennis Rhylen Fuller, Annie Mae Fuller Moore, Dorothy Hazel Fuller, Julius Delbert Fuller, Edith Rose Fuller Belcher, Elsie Frances Fuller Dodson, and Willie Roslyn Fuller Yellock.
She leaves to mourn her passing her devoted niece Debbie Pritchett (Warren); their children, Brian Pritchett and Jason Pritchett (Melinda); Christine Fuller, Greg Fuller (Connie); great-grandchildren Ayla, Ethan, and Carter Pritchett; Phyllis (Candy) Belcher, Jeff Belcher (Wanda), Carolyn and Dawn Hairston; and a host of nieces, nephews, relatives and friends.

Since condolences!! Charles and Carolyn Lightsy
We were saddened to hear about Edna Lee's passing. She was one of our mother's, Madelyne Guy, long time friend. They enjoyed many years of friendship especially when they both worked in New Rochelle. We will miss chatting with her during holidays and on her birthday. Rest in peace dear Edna Lee. Love, Miriam and Algie Guy
To the family; we never met Ms. Edna in person, but we became acquainted with her over the phone when Dawn and Carolyn joined our family. When she called them,she always spoke to one or more of us on the phone. She became quite special to us as well. She will be dearly missed and loved, but know "that even though she's not here physically, she will always be in Our hearts forever"; gone but never forgotten. The Hairston Family with Love
To the Family of Mrs Edna, There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away. I pray you have comfort in this passage. She was a precious soul! Until we meet again, Alice Travis Little
Rest in peace Mrs. Fuller-Lee. We love you.
