TULK, George Clarence
In demonstrating strength and endurance in both body and spirit until his final moments, George Clarence Tulk went home at last on June 22 after 87 years. As he was embraced by wife Joan (nee Locke) of 58 years and devoted daughter Debbie (Horace) Mouland, George joined his dearly departed parents, Walter and Pearl Tulk, infant sister Mary, brothers Raymond and Maurice and sister Joan (Donald) Ford, and nephews Dean Ford and Michael Wicks. Among the many hearts that are forever full with George's kindness are granddaughter Charity (Rick) Robicheau with new great-granddaughter Sadie Georgia (born June 11, 2018), granddaughter Carolyn Mouland, brother Jim (Sandra), sister Bonnie (Wilson) Wicks, sisters-in-law Edith (Raymond) and Jean (Maurice), and special cousin Lucy. Across all generations and during any season, George always cherished opportunities to share his favourite places to fish, chop wood, and hunt with a long line of treasured nephews, nieces, cousins, and neighbours. The lives of family, friends, and strangers alike have also been enriched by his wide range of skills and diverse experience as an outdoorsman, in addition to his sharp cardplaying and his lovingly handcrafted furniture. With steady feet and able hands, be it on the water or in the woods, salt water and fresh air were the elements that George immersed himself in as much for hard work as for fruitful pleasure. Born and bred in Jackson's Arm, George was a fixture in the community. Beyond his diligent and detailed work in plumbing and heating, which expanded into a variety store together with Joan, George warmed and brightened everyone around him with his good nature and integrity. George's life will be celebrated on Sunday, June 24 with visitation at St. Bartholomew's Anglican Church in Jackson's Arm from 2-4 pm and 8-9 pm, followed by funeral service at 11 am on Monday, June 25. Many thanks to Dr. Lafferty and the nursing team for their attentive and considerate care at Western Memorial Regional Hospital's Palliative Care Unit, where donations in lieu of flowers will be graciously received.
