Margaret Virginia Zito Fuller Obituary (1917 - 2009)

Margaret "Margie" Virginia Zito Fuller RIVERDALE - Margaret died on Saturday, June 27, 2009 at age 92 from natural causes related to age. She was at her home surrounded by family on her favorite couch that she often took a nap on. Margaret was born April 2, 1917 in Ogden, Utah, the daughter of Congetta Russo and John Zito. She outlived her sister and six brothers. They grew up in Riverdale where they all played baseball, including Margaret, even though a childhood accident left her with only one arm. She worked at Hill Air Force Base while her brothers served in WWII. Margaret and Sterling Walker Fuller were married on December 21, 1946. They celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary before Sterling passed away in May of 2007. Margaret was a devoted wife and a tremendous mother, raising their three children in their Riverdale home. She was active in 4-H, scouting, and was a talented seamstress. She served as a visiting teacher for several years. She was an excellent cook and always made big Italian meals for family occasions. Margaret is known for her green thumb, Christmas caramels, and bows for every occasion. She worked at Gibby Floral for over 30 years and her customers still miss not having her there. Margaret is survived by her daughter, Connie, and two sons, Skip and Brett (Stephanie), and lots of nieces and nephews. She had 12 grandchildren who adored her, and she had the joy of meeting her first great-grandchild, Cayden Walker, before she passed. We will all miss her more than words can express. Thank you for your fabulous example, Margaret. Graveside services will be held on Monday, July 6, 2009 at 11:00 a.m. at Ogden City Cemetery.
