MARY GRACE CANNON FULLER
Mary Grace Cannon Fuller went home peacefully to her Lord, on Saturday, April 16, 2022, surrounded by her greatest blessings, her four children. She was 94 years old.
Her family has lost a matriarch and Heaven gained an Angel. Two beloved souls, Mary Grace and husband, Grant Alexander Fuller, are reunited for eternity.
Mary was born in Baton Rouge, LA on July 9, 1927. She met her husband, Grant on a blind date in 1948. They married and moved to Houston, TX in 1950. She was one of the founding members of the Afton Village Women’s Club, and a member of both St. Theresa and St. Cecilia Churches and Women’s Clubs. She led Camp Fuller for her six grandchildren during their childhood for a week every summer.
She was the foundation that held many friendships and groups together. She was so full of life, class, impeccably organized, and she never met a stranger. She ran circles around everyone. Mary was a Cannon full of Grace.
Mary was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 69 years, Grant Alexander Fuller, her parents; Martha Ida Pertuis Cannon and George Howard Cannon, her brother and his wife, Stirling and Rita Cannon, and niece Cheryl Czerniewski.
Mary is survived by her brother and his wife; Charles and Ann Cannon; her three sons and their wives; Scott and Pamela Fuller, Todd and Mary Fuller, and Thad and Eleni Fuller, all of Houston; daughter and her husband; Martha and Buzzy Landry of Gonzales, LA.
Grandchildren; Allison and Roy Melnar Jr, Katelyn Fuller and fiancé Jacob Hanselman, and Gabriella Fuller all of Houston, Lauren Fuller of Austin, TX, Grant and Tiffany Landry of Tulsa, OK and Molly and Dylan Ligori of Metairie, LA.
Great Grandchildren; Parker and Hunter Melnar of Houston and Charlotte Grace Landry of Tulsa, OK.
Nephews and their wives; Layne and Debbie Cannon, Anthony and Pam Cannon, Lee and Pat Fuller, Bob and Laura Fuller and Stewart Cannon.
Nieces and their husbands; Vicki and John Propp, Lisa and Paul Sikes and Alicia and Clint Richardson; nieces Cynthia Cannon, Ann Fuller and Laura Fuller.
Her family would like to especially thank her dear friend and trusted caregiver, Lola Maldonado.
