Depends very much on the fungus.
On the whole though, yes.
First: much of the decomposition of matter is dealt with by fungi which allows it to enter back into the system, feeding much of the food chain.
Second: many if not most trees (and many other plants, orchids being the best known) enter into a symbiotic relationship with fungi which assists them in gaining nutrition from the soil.
Third: yeast has been a major influence in human culture primarily for it's bread and booze related uses.
Fourth: many early belief systems and spiritual traditions were (and are) linked to fungus based drug use, as is a large proportion of art, literature and music.

What fungus is used to harm or kill another living organism occurring in farming environments?
Beauveria bassiana is a type of fungus that is often used as a biological control agent in agriculture to harm or kill pests like insects. This fungus infects and kills the target organism by attaching to its body and growing within it, eventually leading to its death.
What is an organism that absorbs food from the surface it lives on?
An example of an organism that absorbs food from the surface it lives on is a parasitic flatworm. These flatworms, also known as tapeworms, attach themselves to the intestinal lining of their host and absorb nutrients directly through their skin.
What are examples of hyperparasitism?
One example of hyperparasitism is when a parasitic wasp lays its eggs inside a host that is already infected with parasitic larvae. Another example is when a fungus infects a parasitic organism that is already living on a host organism.
