BULL, Walter David In loving memory of Walter David Bull. With great sadness Walter David Bull of 80 years passed away peacefully in his home June 4, 2002. Beloved husband of 59 years and best friend of Eola (Leonard) Bull. Loving father of Gordon (Dianne), Patty (Terry) Brill, Cathy (Andrew) Little, Peter, Stephen (Maria). Proud grandfather of Jeff Brill, Jana Bolton, Thomas Little, Tony & Jason Raso. Great grandfather of Paolo and Kayle. Sadly missed by nephews David (Barbara), Peter, nieces Ann, Sandy (Rob), Nancy, and other relatives and friends. Son of the late Reverend Percy Bull and wife Margaret. Dear brother of Frank deceased (Madeline) and Peter (Phyllis) deceased. Walter was born in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, October 23, 1921. He moved with his family to Sudbury at age one. Growing up in Sudbury he joined the Scout movement, becoming a leader and winning the King Scout award. He enlisted in the R.C.A.F. and served in England, Italy, and France. After the war he went to work for Bill Muirhead at Muirhead Stationers and retired in 1987. Walter was a long-time member of the Masonic Lodge and a devoted member of the Church of the Resurrection. Dad was a special father who loved his family dearly. He was gentle, compassionate and caring, always available to offer advice and words of encouragement. Dad made good times even better with his sense of humour. Laughter to him was good medicine and all who knew him were uplifted by his jovial nature and quick wit. Dad enjoyed the simple things in life and spent hours outdoors communing with nature. One would have thought he actually talked to birds and chipmunks. He loved his yard and his garden and tended his vegetables with caring hands. Dad was extremely knowledgeable and could devise ways and means to solve most problems. He was innovative and clever and people admired his vivid imagination and creativity. Dad was fun to be with and enjoyed people. He thought the world of Mom and went out of his way to make her happy. Resting at the LOUGHEED FUNERAL HOME, 252 Regent St. at Hazel St. Funeral Service in the Anglican Church of the Resurrection Saturday, June 8th, 2002 at 2 p.m. Cremation in the Parklawn Crematorium.
