Irah Ned Gull

On December 13th, 2009, Irah Ned Gull, 50, after a long 9 month fight, passed away peacefully at home surrounded by his loved ones & traveled on to that big truck stop in the sky. He left behind a legacy of unconditional love, determination and laughter. Ned was born June 30th, 1959 to Arden William Gull & Dorthia Ruth Baker and was the youngest of 8 children. On December 9th, 1980 he married the love of his life Raylene Grace Risher and together they had 7 wonderful children and took in many more as their own. Ned was a life long truck driver and enjoyed it very much. He also enjoyed telling his dirty jokes, playing his practical jokes, the last minute family outings and his "wrestles". Most of all he enjoyed the company of his grandchildren & children. His grandchildren were the light of their Papa's life! Ned was preceded in death by his parents and two siblings, Dennis A. Gull & Larene Gull. He is survived by his wife Raylene, children: Margie(Troy), Angie(Noe), Zach(Leila), Gabe(Alycia), Josh, Chamra(Rico) and Jennifer. Also his "adopted" children Craig, Brian(Cass), Trish & Lindsay.

He was also survived by two brothers, three sisters and many nieces, nephews and other extended family. We would like to send special thanks to Bill & Tracy Strickland for their kind and generous help and support. The Bristol Hospice Center for everything they did for our family in the short time we knew them and to all those who helped and were a great support over the last 9 months and who continue to be a great support to us.
