KULL, Robert "Ranger Bob"
Of Doster, MI

Born April 9, 1946, in Buffalo, New York, passed away on Monday, September 13th, 2004. He is survived by his wife and partner. Julia Carson; his mother, Mary Joan Kull, of Buffalo; his sister, Kathleen (Kull) and Walter Bossinger, of Buffalo; nephew, Scott and Kathryn Bossinger, of San Diego; and niece, Jodie (Bossinger) and Troy Snyder, also of San Diego; his faithful canine companion, Buckwheat; and many loving friends. Bob's father, Theodore Kull, preceded him in death. Bob graduated from Michigan Technical University, and worked as a chemical engineer for the Upjohn Company before becoming the ranger at Camp Merrie Woode of the Girl Scouts Glowing Embers Council. As an active member of the local community, Bob was involved for many years with Prairievillle Township operations. He was Chairman of the Prairieville Township Planning and Zoning Commission since 1993, and instrumental in helping to develop the current Prairieville Township Land Use Plan. Bob served on the Pa!
rks Commission since 1993, and was serving his second elected term as Chairman. Bob was also an active member of the Township's Tax Board of Review. Bob was a conservationist and belonged to several organizations devoted to land conservation issues, and was a founding member of Gun River Ducks Unlimited. Bob was a dedicated naturalist, a wildlife expert, and he raised bountiful crops of vegetables in his organic gardens. Many knew Bob as an avid sportsman, where he spent much of his free time enjoying the lakes, streams and woods of this area. Bob's friendships ranged far and wide; his humor was legendary and supported by his involvement in the "Bob" Committee and his loose affiliation with the church of the Sub-genius. His talents and abilities were often called upon, and he seldom refused a request for help from friend or stranger alike.

chigan. Call 623-2664 for details and directions to the Hall. Girls Sc
