Following a reading of Robert Frost’s ‘Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening’ and surrounded by love, Brook Fuller peacefully passed on January 5, 2021 in Yakima, Washington. Brook was born to Vicki Fuller on November 15, 1980, minutes after her twin sister Jamie and three years to the day after their sister Brandy.
In 1994, after Brandy’s passing, the family moved to Sitka, where the twins attended Mt. Edgecumbe High School. In 1997, Brook left Sitka and traveled the Pacific NW extensively, returning often to Alaska to visit her enormous family of friends.
Never one to conform, Brook was a feminist who worked in the commercial fishing industry. Brook’s amiable disposition and affectionate nature made her easy to love. Warm, sweet, smart, and quick to laugh, with a calm presence and delightful smile, Brook was generous and kind to all humans and cats whose paths she crossed. To be by her side was to feel her love.
She was a lover, learner, and traveler. She made her own clothing, valued the power of eyeliner, tea, an amazing meal, film, and conversation. In her years, she lived in Chugiak, Sitka, Yakutat, and Juneau, Alaska as well as in Seattle.
Like many other Alaskans, Brook’s life was punctuated by the trauma of suicide and truncated by addiction. As she weathered her own, her warmth and ability to love and be loved served her well. She was grateful for the unconditional love and support of friends who helped guide her through the steps of accepting and living with her addiction, as well as the steps of celebrating and living with her recovery.
Brook was preceded in death by her sister Brandy and mother Vicki. She is survived by her twin sister Jamie, cousins Shawn and Mandy, and paternal relatives.
