Vera Rose Pucknell b 8 Aug 1917 Witham, Essex
« on: Sunday 23 September 18 12:26 BST (UK) »
The above married Leonard S J Fuller b 21 May 1921 at Braintree, Essex, England Q3 1948, they had 2 children there but appear  29 Jul 1958 as travelling to Bermuda from Canada; the latter given as their residence. There is an obit at rootsweb obituary daily times index which says she passed away c2000 in Victoria, BC but that doesn't help with an exact date does it?
Can you find out any more about her passing and what happened to Leonard too please?

Did they have a son named Michael Charles, born July 4, 1949 in Brentwood, Essex?  Obit for same indicates he died on January 28, 2014 in Oakville, Ontario.  Predeceased by his parents, Len and Vera Fuller, late of Victoria, British Columbia; Freeport, Bahamas; Oakville and London.  Michael is buried at St. Jude's Cemetery in Oakville.  Names brothers (still living) N, D and sister, G.  Children and grandchildren also named as is current wife.

Leonard and Vera certainly moved around.
