KENNETH ALFRED BULMER
September 12, 1939 – October 3, 2024
At Ramsey Lake Health Centre, Ken went home to be with his Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. He took his first breath in Sudbury and his last breath in Sudbury, where he was proud to have lived for 10 decades. He leaves his loving wife of 63 years Sharon (Moore) Bulmer; beloved daughter Heather (Gord) Glendenning of Newmarket and wonderful son Kent (Michelle) of Whitefish. Ken loved the time with his grandchildren Chad (Amanda) Glendenning, Kristi Cameron, Kurt Glendenning, Brittany (Matt)(Glendenning) Oldfield, Kaden Bulmer and Maddox Bulmer. He also loved sharing the antics of his eight great-grandchildren Maddie, Eloise, Sophie, Lincoln, Hailey, Leo, Brodie and Shepherd. Survived by his sister Doreen Ginzinger, sister-in-law Ardith Brebner and brother-in-law Billy (Monique) Moore. Ken accepted the Lord as his Saviour as a child and lived his whole life in this relationship. He was a loving, generous man, a strong prayer warrior and willing servant with many God-given talents. Ken was an auto mechanic at Crossing Alignment in Sudbury for nine years and then an auto teacher at Huron Heights Secondary School in Newmarket for 28 years. He built our cottage/home on Manitoulin Island. As a master carpenter he made much of the furniture and objects there too. Ken retired to the cottage in 1993, where he spent his favourite times hunting, fishing, enjoying the outdoors while entertaining friends and family. He enjoyed his 1941 Plymouth, doing stained glass and taxidermy. A life well spent! Burial was at Mindemoya Cemetery at 2 pm on Tuesday, October 8, 2024 followed by a Celebration of Life at Spring Bay Church at 3 pm. A reception followed. Livestream https://www.sbpchurch.ca/online. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Spring Bay Church to supply water filtration systems at two missions Ken supported in Honduras and Zambia. “For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.” Please share your thoughts, memories and photos at www.islandfuneralhome.ca.
