He was first married to Laura Brune who died in 1962, and in 1967 he married Frances Hayes. He was a lay leader and Sunday School teacher at the United Methodist Church in Correctionville. He served eight years on the Correctionville Board of Education, was a member of the town council and served 22 years as township clerk.

He was a member of the Masonic Lodge, Eastern Star, Sioux City Consistory and Abu Bekr Shrine, and, in addition, was very active in the Republican party in his area.

Mr. Fullerton, a Republican, was a member of the Sixty-second, Sixty-fifth and Sixty-sixth General Assemblies, representing Cherokee, Plymouth and Woodbury Counties. He passed away on January 17, 1976, and is survived by his widow; a daughter, Mrs. Gary (Mary) Myers of Grand Blanc, Michigan; a son, the Reverend Dean Fullerton of Des Moines; and a step­daughter, Mrs. Herbert Rasmussen of Cushing, Iowa.

Therefore, Be It Resolved by the House of Representatives of the Sixty-sixth General Assembly of Iowa: That in the passing of the late Honorable Bert Fullerton, the state has lost an honored citizen and a faithful and useful public servant, and the House by this resolution would express its appreciation of his service, and tender its sympathy to the members of the family.
