I worked for Mr. Fulcher as a receptionist while I attended Hardin-Simmons University many years ago. Have fond memories of him, his family, and his business, Gardens of the Southwest. Peace to you Blake and Brad

I went to school with Rodney in Slaton,TX,and we were close friends for many years. I have not seen him in a long time,but kept up with him  through his family.I knew he had been ill for some time,but was surprised,and sadden to hear of his passing.May God bless and comfort his family at this time.

Rodney Fulcher was a friend and classmate of mine at Slaton High School, class of 1958.  When one of our classmates passes on, we all die a little too, but the memories are never erased.  We were teammates on the football field, and he was one of those fine running backs I had to hand the ball to and get those yards we needed.  I worked for his dad, Mr. Truett Fulcher at the Slaton swimming pool for several years, and Rodney and I swam on the State Championship relay team (15 yr & under).  His dad,  Mr. Truett Fulcher, I still regard to this day,as one of the greatest influences on my life. Although he wasn't in the teaching-education profession, he taught me valuable lessons which I hold dear. I'm sure he passed these lessons to his son, Rodney. Although Rodney's chapter in life has ended, he will always be remembered by me.

I attended High School with Rodney in Slaton, Texas. Rodney was on the football and track tream with me and I enjoyed his team playing and competitivess.  He was a good friend and well lliked in school.  We graduated in 1958 and went our separate ways in life.  I am sure that Rodney was a good husband and father and will be missed by his family and fellow Slaton Classmates. Alex Franco, West Point, New York.

We were saddened to learn of the death of our good friend, Rodney.  We will miss his quick smile, and great passion for his work.

Little did we know where our lives would take us from our small close-knit graduating class in 1958 to this time in 2010.  Our numbers become smaller yet again.   Remembering how much fun we all had together, it's hard to believe so many years have passed.   Rodney was such a good looking guy and I see he still is as are his sons.  Thank you for sharing pictures of his life.  My prayer for the family and those who loved him is that you will find comfort in knowing that God is with you and He cares for you.

I was a classmate of Rodney at Slaton High School.  He actively served in many ways as part of our class.  My sincere condolences to his family.  God bless you and comfort you.

I went to school and church with Rodney in Slaton, Texas.  After we graduated from high school, I worked with his father at the swimming pool in Slaton and at the movie theater in Wilson, Tex.  He was a very nice young man and he had great respect for his parents and others.  I know his family will miss him and his classmates will miss him when next we meet.

I was saddened to hear of the passing of another of my classmates.  Even though many years have passed since high school, it seems like only yesterday.  I have many fond memories of Rodney and our time together then.  May God bless his family and give then strength and comfort.

From West Ward Grade School, Boy Scouts of America, Slaton High School, football, hunting, competing for that big buck and some 59 years of close friendship. Watching our children grow into great adults, the mutual sorrows of losing our parents and now to say "see you later good friend". Your departure will leave a great emptiness in this world, your family and my life. Your family will always remember you with love and pride.  
Jimmy Sikes, Slaton, Tx

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Fulcher Family in this time of sorrow.  Remember that you were blessed with a good man for a father and grandfather.

May God bless his family and give them comfort.

As a member of First Baptist Church, Rodney contributed not only his expertise, but also plants, shrubs, and trees for the church.  It was my pleasure to serve with him on the Grounds Committee a number of years ago, and I was amazed at his knowledge and  his generosity.   In addition, we lived in the same neighborhood while our children were growing up, and Rodney was a good neighbor and always a gentleman,  He will be missed.   Our prayers are with Blake and Brad and their families.

I only knew Mr. Fulcher as Blake's dad and Brandon's and Matt's grandad, but I knew him as a good man who raised a good son and grandsons.  He was always pleasant to me whenever we spoke, and I was blessed that he would take time out of his busy day to greet me and visit with me.  My sympathy and prayers for his family...what a great legacy to celebrate!  May God comfort you as only He can during this time as you remember your dad and grandad.  Many prayers of peace for you.
