Bernadine (Bunny) Tull, age 91, passed away peacefully Oct. 5 in Rathdrum, Idaho, with her adoring husband, John T. Tull, at her side.

Bunny was born in California and grew up surrounded by her large family. She had seven other siblings, who all preceded her. In the early 70s, John & Bunny followed a couple of her siblings who moved to Rathdrum and, with the help of many crafty family members, built their dream home.

As a wife, mother of five and grandmother, she was generous, loving and kind. Bunny was full of creative and admirable talents that included being an award-winning artist, seamstress, dancer and chef, and often broke out in song, especially those with funny and quirky lyrics. One of her favorite pastimes was fishing on Twin Lakes with her husband. “Honey, get the gaff!” Even late in life, Bunny believed it was important to be active and healthy. She was always on the go and she loved her exercise routines with her husband.

She will be greatly missed by her husband, children, Sandy (Tommy Edmonds), Janice, Robin (Larry Larsen), & Vincent (Karen Horan) and so many family members that include more grandchildren, great-grandchildren and even a few great-great-grandchildren that won't fit in this memoir.

Bunny’s passing was preceded by her son, John W. Tull (2014).
