Mr. Gary Patrick Bullock

January 23, 1961 - July 1, 2021

Gary Patrick Bullock, 60, of Scottsboro, Alabama passed away in the home that he loved on Thursday, July 1, 2021. Gary was born in Reno, Nevada and since he was a small child had a larger than life personality. Gary went all state in wrestling and football, earning him a scholarship to Troy University where he earned his bachelor of science degree in accounting and business/management in 1984, and then went on to earn his MBA in 2002 from Lake Forest Graduate School of Management. But he would say his greatest success was maintaining close relationships and being a great father to his two children, Colton and Savannah Bullock. After completing 36 years at Allstate Insurance Company, Gary was ready to start the next chapter in his life. He moved to Scottsboro, AL and many would say this is where his life really began.Gary could have written the book on how to live a retired life. He quickly began mowing the golf greens next door to his house for free golf, bought a boat, joined and became the president of the Homeowners Association, joined the Master Gardeners Program, and his greatest joy was becoming a volunteer firefighter for the Waterfront Volunteer Fire Department; He became the treasurer and was even awarded Firefighter of the year. He joked that 30 years of working in insurance made him want to run into burning buildings. He is predeceased by his father Walter Harold Bullock; and his siblings, Walter Harold Bullock Jr. and Sandra Lee Trottier. He is survived by his children, Colton James Bullock and Savannah Lee Bullock (Anthony Velardi); his mother Beatrice Baker (Larry); his siblings, Lawrence Bullock, Jeffery Baker (Brandi), Wanda Mangum, Linda Wodnick and Penny Jones; his sister-in-law Donna Bullock; his nieces and nephews, Tricia, Tiffany, Billy, Caroline, Lucy, Peter, Jeremy, Catrina, Cristina, Dennis Jr,Jacobi, Julian, Rylan and Brayden; and his precious pets, Cassius, Randy, and Mr.Fox and cousins, aunts, uncles, and many other extended family members. He will be missed by many that include his Waterfront Volunteer Firefighter brothers and sisters, Master Gardeners, Scottsboro neighbors, Troy Theta Chi fraternity family, Allstate golf buddies, and the multitude of people with whom he shared his wisdom, charm, compassion, and comedic timing. Visitation will be held on Thursday, July 8th 2021 from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM at the Carr Funeral Home (1960 Obrig Ave, Guntersville, AL 35976) followed by a celebration of life service at 3:00 PM in the chapel. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made in honor and remembrance of Gary to the Waterfront Volunteer Fire Department at 5515 Scottsboro Hwy Scottsboro, Alabama 35769,256-582-4895.
