Louise Marie Hopkins Nicholas Fuller, 76, of Las Vegas, passed away Monday, 26 Sep 2005. She was born 25 Sep 1929 in Irvington, Essex County, New Jersey, the daughter of George Hopkins and Gertrude Estelle Braffett and the granddaughter of Charles Hopkins and Emily Wilkes and Charles H. Braffett and Bessie M. Wood.
Louise was a loving mother and grandmother and is survived by her daughters, Jill John of Virginia, and Trudy Whitener of California; son, Matt Fuller of California; grandsons, Timothy, Gregory, Philip, and Daniel John, all of Virginia, and Nolan and Garrett Whitener of California; and stepdaughter, Debbie Gillies of Nevada. Though Louise had many careers that included owning a restaurant, the airfreight industry, the phone company, real estate, and volunteering for AARP, she enjoyed being an investor in her later years. And while people would remember her for these things, mostly she will be remembered as a doting mother and grandmother. Her grandchildren frequently benefited from her guidance and will always remember her for her sense of fun and silliness mixed with seriousness. She proved to her own children how important a college education was by going to college for a business degree while in her fifties and maintaining a 3.6 g.p.a. Later, she became the computer guru of her retired friends, always helping them with their computers and emailing them jokes to make them laugh. Louise had many friends in Las Vegas, after having moved here 20 years ago from California. She appreciated her wonderful neighbors and friends. She will be greatly missed. Memorial services will be at 11 a.m. Saturday, 1 Oct, at Affordable Cremation & Burial Service, 2457 North Decatur Blvd., in Las Vegas. We love and miss you, Mom.
