John
Bula
1968-2010
John Victor Bula, age 42, of Coloma, Wisconsin died
Friday, December 24, 2010 at his home.
John found peace on Christmas Eve after
a courageous journey through Graves Disease and Depression. His
gifts of love, laughter, a thirst for knowledge, and his
ability to see beyond a present situation to find a better
way, transformed many lives. He
was devoted to his family, had a passion for nature and
fishing, loved music and reading, was an avid Packer fan,
and gave 13 years of service to his country with the U.S.
Army (including Desert Storm-Second Armored Division- as a
tank mechanic). John grew up in Wisconsin, sharing time
with the Bula family in Antigo and Adams-Friendship and the
Whitnall family in Beaver Dam, Door County and Waunakee. For many years he worked for the Bula-Garringer Farms in potato
production (irrigation systems, general farm work, and long
distance truck driving) and cattle management. He attended
UW Stevens Point, majoring in Fisheries and Water Resources. John�s
presence on this planet created a better world for everyone.
John
was preceded in death by his grandparents, Stanley and Edna
Bula; grandparents, Robert and Jeanne Whitnall; and uncle,
Jim Bula.
