He retired about five years ago as president of Carl C. Fulco Inc., but he remained chairman of the board of the stone and brick masonry company he started in 1968.
From 1951 until 1968, he was a partner in Fulco and Weber Stone and Brick Contractors and had operated his own stone contracting company for three years before that.

He became a member of Local 1 of the Bricklayers and Allied Craftsmen in 1927 as an apprentice stonemason.
Then he worked on such projects as the stone wall at Druid Hill Lake and repointing the steeple of the First Presbyterian Church.
However, business was slow and he also managed delicatessen stalls at Lexington Market.
With the start of World War II, he worked for contractors at the Bainbridge Naval Training Center and an airport in Orlando, Fla., and then as a draftsman at the Bethlehem Fairfield shipyard and at the former Glenn L. Martin Co., now Martin Marietta Corp.
At the end of the war, he worked on plans for steelwork by Dietrich Brothers Inc.
In 1989 he was named an honorary life member by the Building Congress and Exchange, which he had served as a judge and photographer for the craftsmanship awards committee.
He also was a trustee of the health and welfare pension fund of Local 1 of the Bricklayers and Allied Craftsmen, and was active in the Mason Contractors Association of Baltimore and the Mechanical Contractors Association of America.
A member of the Knights of Columbus, he was also an extraordinary minister of the Eucharist and a former president of the Manresa Retreat Group at St. Dominic's Church.
He is survived by his wife, the former Rose M. Walzog; two sons, Carl C. Fulco Jr. of Baltimore and Frederick L. Fulco Sr. of Parkville; a daughter, Fillippa L. Mullin of Baltimore; two brothers, Frank Fulco of Parkville and Marion Fulco of Lutherville; 10 grandchildren; and two great-grandchildren.

He worked for the Office of Price Administration at the start of World War II. He then served as an officer in the Navy, commanding a gun crew on a merchant ship in a heavily attacked convoy in the Atlantic and commanding a landing ship at Iwo Jima. Later, he accepted the surrender of two small Japanese islands.
He was a member of the Anne Arundel County library board; Alpha Sigma Nu, a Jesuit honor society; the Harvard Club of New York and the Officers Club at the Naval Academy.
