Adele C. Fullam

Adele Constance Fullam: A Life Well Lived Adele Constance Fullam, 92, died peacefully on November 30 and in her last days was surrounded by loving family members. Adele was born and raised in Flushing, Queens. She was the oldest of two, the other being her younger brother Joseph Mikalauskas. Adele attended St. Luke's Grammar School, then Mary Louis Academy, ultimately graduating from St. Joseph's College. While Adele knew her husband, Gene, in grammar school, it wasn't until college that Adele was allowed to date Gene. Not until he returned from service in WWII, as a US Marine, First Marine Division, did the love affair really begin to blossom. Married 11/22/1951, this love affair lasted beyond his death (9/9/1997) till her last breath. Adele was a devoted mother and grandmother. Her grandchildren were the apple of her eye. And, as grandparents often do, Adele spoiled her grandchildren. But, she also taught all the importance of family, perseverance, forgiveness, and kindness. She rejoiced in her children's accomplishments and in their families. Adele enjoyed a full life and engaged in several beloved activities including spending time with her Pearsall Ave Bridge Club members, the Glen Cove Women's Club (formerly St. Patrick's), the Glen Cove Senior Center, and was a long-time member of Nassau Country Club. Adele was a devoted alumna of the Mary Louis Academy "MLA" and St. Joseph's College (Brooklyn). Beloved wife of the late Eugene Fullam and daughter Anne Fullam Goeke, Adele is survived by her four children and spouses, Gene (Susan) Fullam, Peter Fullam, Kristin Fullam, and Karen (Brennan) as well as by her six grandchildren who were her greatest treasures: Patrick, Ryan, Carly, Sean, Mathew, and Amy. She is predeceased in death by her brother, Joseph Mikalauskas. Adele will be missed by her nieces, nephews and close friends.
