We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Elise Ann Fullenlove, of Crestline, who peacefully passed away on March 6, 2024, at Orchard Villa in Oregon, Ohio. Ann was born on January 25, 1933, in Crestline, to the late John and Ethel (Reed) Fullenlove.

Ann lived a fulfilling life surrounded by the love of her family and friends. She would spend 24 years soaking up the sun in Bradenton, Florida until recently moving back to Ohio to be with family. She was a dedicated member of the Eastern Star and enjoyed participating in bowling leagues, card games with friends, and trying her luck with the lottery. Ann was also an avid Cleveland Browns fan. During the summer, she looked forward to her trips spent at her brother, Kenneth’s cottage at Manistee Lake in Northern Michigan. Additionally, Ann enjoyed occasionally sipping on Kahlua and cream at home.

Ann’s professional journey led her to Northern Electric as a tracer, where she worked diligently until her well-deserved retirement in 1988. She leaves behind fond memories of her kindness, laughter, and unwavering love for those closest to her.

Ann is survived by her brother, Kenneth Fullenlove of Northwood, her sister, Mildred Winbigler of Mansfield, numerous nieces and nephews, and her friend, Jim Green, who will forever cherish the time they spent together.

In addition to her parents, Ann is preceded in death by her brothers; James Beck, William Beck, Martin Fullenlove and Ronald Fullenlove, and her best friend, Janet Green.

In honor of Ann’s life, a private graveside service will be held at Greenlawn Cemetery, Crestline.

Memorial contributions may be made to the Alzheimer’s Association, Northwest Ohio Chapter, 480 W. Dussell Dr., Suite 150, Maumee, OH 43537.
