Bull leaves behind a legacy of love and laughter! He was a devoted family man who loved them with his whole heart. Bull’s love for his wife, Kim, was immeasurable. He adored his children, Lucas and Katie, as well as his granddaughters who knew him best as their “Grandbull”. He was truly a friend to all as well as a friend to many! It was common for him to bless people with unique nicknames too. Bull was known for his quick wit and his delightful sense of humor which was just one of the many ways that Bull shared his love.
In addition to spending time with family and friends, he enjoyed hunting, fishing, float trips, shopping with Paul, his dogs, and tending to his chickens. Bull was a devoted Blues fan, and a VERY enthusiastic sports watcher. He was a skilled cook who made the best potato salad, and was also quite the snack enthusiast.
He was a member of Knights of Columbus 1037, Zell Jaycee’s.
We will miss him dearly, but we find peace in knowing he is home.
Go baby go! We love you.
