Rosemary Corrine Fulkerson

Rosemary Fulkerson passed away on March 8, 2026, in Plano, Texas, after a courageous battle with cancer. She was 68 years old.

Rosemary was born on October 26, 1957, in Dallas, Texas, to Edwin and Corrine Hencerling. She grew up in Dallas and attended St. Phillip Catholic School before graduating from Bishop Lynch High School in 1976.

On October 14, 1978, she married the love of her life, Edwin Thomas “Tom” Fulkerson. Their marriage was a devoted partnership that spanned 47 years and was filled with love, faith, and shared memories.

Although Rosemary lived in Plano, Texas for the past 32 years, her roots in Dallas remained an important part of who she was. She was known for her warmth, kindness, and deeply loving nature. Rosemary had a gift for bringing people together. She loved cooking and entertaining, taking special care of the small details that made holidays and gatherings festive and memorable for everyone around her.

Her faith, family, and friends meant everything to her. Rosemary cherished the time she spent with those she loved and created a home where everyone felt welcome. She also had a lifelong fondness for The Beatles, whose music brought her great joy.

Rosemary is survived by her devoted husband of 47 years, Tom Fulkerson; her sister, Shirley Farley (Joseph); nieces Carla Crockett (Rodney), Sherry Mitterer (Rick), Cristi Tenant (Tory), Carrie Fatigante (Jim), and Cynthia Geraghty (Brian); nephews Landon Farley (Heather), Vincent Moseley (Lori), and John Farley; and many beloved great-nieces and great-nephews who will carry her memory forward. She was preceded in death by her parents, Edwin and Corrine Hencerling, and sister, Jody Moseley.

Rosemary will be remembered for her generous heart, her welcoming spirit, and the love she shared so freely with her family and friends. Her presence will be deeply missed, but the warmth she brought to the lives of others will remain a lasting gift to all who knew her.

There will be a visitation at 9:00, rosary at 9:30 and mass at 10:00 a.m. to celebrate Rosemary’s life, Saturday, March 14, 2026, at the Sacred Heart Cemetery Mausoleum, Rowlett, Texas.
