Thomas Wilbourn Fultz, Jr., 88, of Staunton, VA, passed away on Saturday, September 7, 2024, at the Regency at Augusta Assisted Living and Memory Care in Fishersville, VA.
He was born on June 10, 1936, in Rockbridge County, VA, to the late Thomas Wilbourn, Sr. and Mary "Libby" Elizabeth Ramsey Fultz.
In addition to his parents, Thomas was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Adis Wilson Coffey Fultz. Thomas and Adis were married for 63 wonderful years.
