Jonathan Lee Fulbright

April 2, 1957 — May 11, 2021

Jonathan Lee Fulbright, 64, of Pecos, Texas went to his eternal home to live with his Lord and Savior on May 11, 2021. He was the only child of Winifred Lee (Zimmerman) and Newton Hearst Fulbright. Jonathan was born April 2, 1957 in New York City where he grew up in an apartment one mile from the United Nations complex. He graduated from Styvesant High School and then earned a degree in history from Syracuse University. Jonathan’s father was born in Merkel, Texas and grew up in Central Texas. He was a journalist employed by the New York Herald Tribune. Following in his dad’s footsteps, Jonathan earned a degree in journalism from Baylor University. He went to work for The Pecos Enterprise in 1981 and remained there for 40 years. He became an integral and well-loved part of the community. Jonathan was known for writing on all aspects of the news, but he focused on the sports teams in the Pecos area. He was respected and loved by coaches and players alike. He will be missed by all. He was preceded in death by his parents, eleven uncles, ten aunts and one cousin. He is survived by 14 Fulbright cousins and their families living in Texas, California, Colorado and Puerto Vallarta, Mexico along with a host of loved ones and friends. A graveside service will be at Harris Creek Cemetery near Lorena, Texas on Saturday, May 15 at 2:00 p.m. He will be interred beside his father. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to The American Heart Association. The family invites you to leave a message or memory on our "Tribute Wall" at www.WHBfamily.com.
