Douglas Bull
1949 - 2014
Douglas Lorne Bull, beloved husband of over 43 years to Mavis Bull (nee Plant) and loving father to Ken Bull, passed away peacefully at his residence in Medicine Hat on Thursday, July 24, 2014, at the age of 64 years. Doug was born in Medicine Hat to Robert and Jean Bull on September 26, 1949. He worked many years buying scrap metal and selling steel for Hat Salvage. Doug had numerous hobbies including a keen interest in motorcycles, but he was an outdoorsman at heart. He cherished each opportunity to go hunting, fishing and camping, much to the delight of his golden retriever, Daisy! Along with his wife and son, Doug’s memory will live on in the hearts of his mother, Jean Bull; grandson, Jack Bull; brothers and sisters-in-law, Barry (Rita) Plant; Ed (Marilyn) Moss and Brian (Helen) Plant as well as numerous nieces, nephews and cousins. He was predeceased by his father, Bob Bull. A Private Celebration of Doug’s life will be held. Those wishing to remember Doug may do so through a donation to the charity of their choice.

Hello Mavis, this is Dahlia Mook. I worked at ATB. I would love looking at him and saying"Mr. Bull" and then he would look at me and like a real cowboy in tone he'd say, "Ma'am". I have been by myself three years now and it's not great at all in the beginning but things work out... you will see. I know your pain. The words, "I just can't believe it" in your head and the smell of his stuff. Some days spirits are in the valley and some days they are on the mountain up high and then down down down down down - my faith really, really helps me. All people are different and have different styles of grieving. You will find yours too. Regards
