Paula J. Fullerton

Paula J. Fullerton, age 81, of Lynnfield passed away peacefully with her family by her side on Wednesday, April 2 at the Kaplan Family Hospice House in Danvers.

Born in Chelsea on June 21, 1943 she was the daughter of the late Edward and Eleanor (Brown) Domenichello.

She was originally from Chelsea, where she cherished her upbringing and formed lasting memories. After proudly graduating from Mount Saint Joseph Academy in Brighton, she dedicated herself to her family as a devoted homemaker. Later in life, she found fulfillment working for many years at Northeastern University, contributing her talents. Her spirit was truly alive during summer escapes to her cherished home in Deer Island, New Brunswick, Canada, where she delighted in boating and making new memories with family and friends.

Her heart always found joy in companionship, particularly through her beloved neighborhood book club and ladies lunch club, where laughter and stories were shared among fond friends.

She was the beloved wife of the late Russell E. Fullerton. She was the loving mother of Lisa J. Silva and her husband Christopher of Saugus and Matthew R. Fullerton and his wife Carrie of Topsfield. She is also survived by her grandchildren, Kathryn Silva of Saugus, Emily Silva and her partner Luis Cabrera of Lawrence, John Silva and his partner Delaney Chisholm of Saugus, and Mason, Madilynn, and Nicolas Fullerton of Topsfield; as well as her great-grandson Kaden Cabrera of Lawrence. She was the sister of Robert Domenichello of NH, Lawrence Domenichello of ME, Edward Domenichello of FL, and the late Victoria Anderson. She is also survived by many nieces and nephews.

Her Funeral Service will be held in the McDonald Funeral Home, 19 Yale Ave., Wakefield on Monday, April 7 at Noon. Visitation for relatives and friends will be held prior to the service beginning at 10am.

Burial will be private.
