His funeral sermon was preached by his friend, Jeremiah White, and published at London, 8vo, 1702. By his wife Bridget, who survived him, Fuller had two sons, born in Bristol, Francis and Samuel, who died about 1682. Calamy describes him as 'a facetious pleasant man,’ while Samuel Palmer adds that he 'discovered great sagacity in judging of some future events.' (en)
