Robert Powell

Ambassador

I grew up in Monett, Missouri which is a small town in the southwest part of the state. After high school graduation, I attended Missouri Southern College in Joplin, MO. After college, I moved to Tulsa, OK where I lived for nearly 30 years. That is where I met my wife, Brenda and we have been married since 1999.

I had a full time career in the men’s clothing retail industry for over 42 years. During that time, I was very fortunate to have worked for several outstanding family stores. Because I enjoy giving good customer service, I thoroughly enjoy assisting families in their most difficult time of grief at Fuller Funeral Home.  

Julie Morgan

Ambassador

I am originally from the Midwest. Funeral service has been a part of my life helping design and work in a funeral home that I was part owner. In 2008, after being a Snow Bird for several years, I decided to relocate here to the Naples area. Like most, I enjoy what the warm climate here has to offer. I am a golfer and love the beautiful courses Southwest Florida offers.
