Lynda Ruth Rogers Fuller, 72, of Plant City, died April 7, 2015.
Mrs. Fuller was a graduate of Plant City Senior High School. She enjoyed organizing many activities, including picnics, dinners and reunions for the class of ‘60, as well as the monthly class breakfast. Mrs. Fuller cared for others on a daily basis throughout her career in nursing. Arts and crafts were her hobby, and she loved making flower arrangements and decorating for Christmas. Mrs. Fuller was a proud ancestor of a Hillsborough County pioneer family, and along with several cousins, co-authored the book “Pioneers of Hopewell.” She was a member of Hopewell Baptist Church since childhood.
