Sitting in a favorite place looking over the placed he loved...
There is a stirring in the land and a gap in the wake as God takes some of His children home.

Memoriam
Wilton Earl “Bill” Tulin was a beloved husband, father, teacher, mentor and friend.
He left us on: Friday June 10, 2005 at age 85, and today we bid him farewell and clearer days with the Lord.
Born on October 22, 1919 to Robert G. Thulin and Jane Strickland Thulin in Salt Lake City. He spent early childhood there and some time in Idaho before returning to Utah.
Bill joined the U.S. Navy in 1940 and was a decorated Pearl Harbor survivor. In He became an accomplished craftsman in many trades including carpentry but his favorite was mechanics. His out of work passions were customizing Volkswagens and fishing.
In 1944 Bill married Gloria Mae White and was blessed with a daughter Marsha and son Steven, the rest of us he adopted.
He later divorced, and then was brave enough to marry Marilyn Eccles McCubbin - March 23, 1979 along with her twelve children.
Bill is survived by 8 sons, 6 daughters, 36 grandchildren, 29 great-grandchildren and more to come. All with love will remember him.
There is much to be missed and much to be thankful for experiencing this life.
Although he was cantankerous in age, he knew the Lord and can now debate with Him face to face.
Listen, I tell you a mystery: we will not all sleep, but will all be changed-in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be be changed. For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and mortal with immortality. when the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: "Death has been swallowed up in victory." "Where, O death, is your victory? where, O death , is your sting?" 1Corinthians 15:51-55 |
