I am so sorry to hear of Dutch’s passing. I grew up around the corner from the Fulks. He and my dad could get in to some long conversations about the town. REST EASY DUTCH..
I had known Dutch my entire life. He was a grandpa to me and a great-grandpa to my children. He would always light up when he was around my children. He absolutely adored my daughter. He was a great guy and person that we were very blessed to have had in our lives. He touched the lives of many and will forever be in our hearts. Love you Dutchman and may you rest in peace.
I remember when I was a little girl every time he would walk to the bathroom that was by my room at a family event, my cousins would hide from him because they were scared. One day I just decided to go up and hug him instead of hide, and that hug is one of the best hugs I’ve ever received In my life. I love you forever Dutch -Katie <3
He loved you too. He showed your picture to everyone that would take a look at it. He was extremely proud of you.

I met Dutch while working at Community Ford in Mooresville. Our store was one of his regular stops around town. At first I thought “who is this old guy who comes by every day just to hang out?” I soon ended up having a conversation with him and discovered what a friendly and thoughtful man this is. I looked forward to seeing Dutch on his visits and hearing what he had to say. What a wonderful sense of humor he had and you could tell he was just a genuine person with a rich history and was also very proud of the things he accomplished in life. He will be missed by all who knew him.
