Mrs. Anne Webber Fulmer

COLUMBIA - Edith Anne Webber Fulmer died Tuesday, August 18, 2015. Born in 1928 in Columbia, South Carolina, she was the daughter of the late Rebecca Pickens Salley and Clarence Putnam Webber. Anne was married for sixty years to the late William Oliver Fulmer, a respected architect who helped preserve many historic structures in South Carolina. Anne was an artist who attended art school at the old Wesleyan Conservatory of Wesleyan College in Macon, Georgia. As a young woman, she lived and worked in New York City before returning home to Columbia to marry and raise her family. Her family especially treasures her paintings and pine straw baskets. Anne was a beautiful woman who is remembered for her true love of animals; she raised dogs, cats, squirrels and a red fox; in her later years, she enjoyed watching deer and birds out her bedroom windows. In earlier years, Anne spent countless days sifting through lakeshore sand and searching through plowed fields for Native American artifacts in South Carolina and Georgia. She was a particularly fast reader of just about everything. Her children’s best memories include those times she giggled and fell into uncontrollable laughter, with sometimes embarrassing results. Surviving are her children, Rebecca (Becky) Guental Fulmer, Susan Alison Fulmer and Henry David Fulmer, III; grandchildren, David Reed Hasterok Fulmer (married to Julia Chalmers Purser), Matthew Charles Hasterok Fulmer, Cheroane Fulmer, Forrest Fulmer and Zachary Fulmer; great-grandchildren, Joy Glynn Hasterok Fulmer, Gabriel Fulmer and Priscilla June Johnsen; and grand-dogs, Blue, Tango and Chief. In addition to her mother (“Bo”) and father (“Jack”), she is predeceased by her brother, Putnam, who could always make her laugh, her beloved husband, Bill, who died in October 2013, and her grandson, Julian Fulmer. Her family will gather at graveside in Elmwood Cemetery on Friday, August 21, 2015 at 10:00 a.m. Friends are welcome to join them. In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorials be made to the FSH Society (facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy), 450 Bedford Street, Lexington, MA 02420; https://www.fshsociety.org. Dunbar Funeral Home Devine Street Chapel is assisting the family.
