Mrs. Fuller, a cherished soul and lifelong resident of Alexander City, Alabama, passed away peacefully on March 24, 2026. Born on October 30, 1953 to Roy E. Smith and Shirley Sharpe Campbell, Debra's life was a testament to her unwavering kindness and the joy she brought to all who were privileged to know her.
Debra's dedication to her community was evident through her many years of loyal service at Russell Mills, where she not only excelled in her work but also formed lasting friendships and became a beloved figure. Her commitment to excellence and her warm, approachable nature were hallmarks of her character, both in her professional life and beyond.
A woman of many passions, Debra's love for her canine companions, especially her cherished "Boy Dog," knew no bounds. Her pets were not merely animals but members of her family, receiving the same love and attention she gave to her human friends. Debra's generosity extended far beyond her home; she was known for her open heart and hands, always ready to support anyone in need without a second thought.
Those who knew Debra will remember her for her radiant smile, her infectious laughter, and the genuine care she showed to everyone around her. She had a unique ability to light up a room and make every individual feel seen and appreciated. Debra's absence will be deeply felt, but her spirit will continue to live on in the countless lives she touched.
As we bid farewell to Mrs. Debra Ann Fuller, we celebrate a life beautifully lived and a legacy of love and kindness that will forever be etched in the hearts of those who knew her. Her memory will be cherished, and she will be profoundly missed by her friends, colleagues, and all the members of the Alexander City community where she spent her entire, remarkable life.
She is survived by her son, Ricky (Lacey) Haynes of Huntsville; grandchildren, Channing (James) DeLoach of Trussville and Emma Haynes of Huntsville; great-grandchild, Cyrus Dekle DeLoach of Trussville; sisters, Rita (Todd) McKelvey and Shirlene (Chris) Baker both of Alexander City; brother, Jamie (Connie) Campbell of Kellyton; daughters, Valerie (Karl) Dunlap of Falkville, Dana Moulton of South Carolina, and Robin Rogers of Florence; and numerous nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews, and cousins who will forever cherish her memory.
She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Robert Prestridge; son, Mark David Smith; and brother, Gene Smith.
The family would like to extend a special thank you to the nurses at Chapman's Nursing Home and Enhabit Hospice for their compassionate and loving care of Debra.
