In Memory

Sandra Holland (Fulton)

Sandra Lee Fulton (1942 - 2021)

     Born November 20, 1942, in Pennsylvania, to John and Alice Holland, Sandy moved as a young girl to California. She lived in Rodeo and Napa before settling in Vallejo. She graduated from Napa Senior High School in 1960. At the age of 18 she met a young sailor who became the love of her life. George Fulton married Sandy on March 2, 1961, at the historic chapel on Mare Island. While George was serving in Vietnam, Sandy purchased a home across the street from her parents and it was there they raised two children, David and Debi. In 1975, the family moved from Vallejo to Vacaville and have lived in the same home ever since.

     Sandy was a homemaker and liked playing games of all kinds. She enjoyed playing bingo, bunco, board games and was a lifelong bowler as well. Together she and George enjoyed their regular Friday night dates with Scottie and Dottie Scott and their weekly trips to Cache Creek Casino. She enjoyed her weekly TOPS meetings and other fellowship with her dear friends - especially her best friend and sidekick, Bobbie Jo. However, her one true passion was her family. She loved to have her home filled with her children, grandchildren and in recent years, her great-grandchildren. Anyone who walked through her door became family (if they weren't already) and when it was time to leave, she'd remind everyone "don't be a stranger."

     Sandy is survived by her loving husband, George; son, David and wife Becki Fulton; daughter, Debi Fulton; granddaughter, Taylor and husband Abram Villafan; granddaughter, Lexi Kielly and grandson, Nate Buteyn; great-grandchildren, Abram, Emma and Delilah. She is also survived by her brother, John Holland; dear nephews and nieces, Brian Hollowell, Adam and Phoebe Hollowell, Evie Holland, Pilar and Tina. She is further survived by her dear friend, Bobbie Jo Hurst.

     A celebration of life will be held at Community Presbyterian Church, 425 Hemlock Street, at 11 a.m. on Saturday, October 30. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you make donations to the American Cancer Society.
