ALWAYS IN OUR HEARTS

Jack Dull

1947-2023

Jack Dull was an exceptionally hard working, dedicated, and talented man. As a valued member of our team, Jack was more than just a colleague; he was like family. Jack had forty years of electrical experience, a Master Electrician. His work was infused with a deep passion, always willing to try something new, and go the extra mile to get the job done. His passion was not only applied to his job but also for the people he worked alongside. He always came to work with a big smile, positive attitude, and a wonderful sense of humor.

His commitment to service extended beyond his professional life and was grounded in his profound faith. He collaborated with his father on the 4th of July for many years, lighting up the sky with fireworks. This was a beacon for his family, and the Staunton City Community.

As he passed suddenly in September of 2023, Jack will be deeply missed. He will always be a part of the Bear Creek Family, and his memory will forever hold a special place in our hearts and be cherished by this company for all the years to come.
