Mr Bulach is what I called him. Not because he wanted me too but because he deserved that kind of respect. Plus I was probably nine years old. It is the fondest of memories that I remember my first boss. And remember all the things that he taught me with out even knowing it. I'm saddened to hear that Mr Bulach has left us but glad to have the fortune of calling him my friend. My thoughts are with the family. Rest In Peace.

My condolences to June, Lynda, Heather, David and families. I am so glad to have known Joe and to have had the absolute privilege of working for him for many years when he was Chair of GEID. He loved working for the community, especially through the water utility, and his common sense in making decisions was second to none. I am glad they named the big pump station at McKinley Landing after him as it was well deserved. We will miss him and our prayers are with you.

Our deepest condolences to June, Linda, Heather & David. He will be deeply missed by all. I always enjoyed our conversations. I remember our childhood days snowmobiling in the orchards and all along the Glenmore ridge. Our thoughts are with you.

Joe- Mr. B to me, was a great friend and neighbour and he and all the Bulach clan became an extended part of our family. When I think about growing up on Valley Road one field over from the Bulachs, I think about hearing Mr. B calling across the field.."Come on over" for coffee, for drinks, for BBQ." He was an incredibly kind, generous and warm personality and my life is richer for having known him. My father Ed would say that Joe Bulach was a forever friend, always there to lend a hand or share a joke. Joe will be remembered often and fondly- Condolences to Lynda, Heather, David and all the Bulach family from the Collinson family.

Our family lived in Glenmore for years and were lucky enough to have the Bulach family for friends and neighbours.

Growing up I remember Joe as being a hard working, kind and friendly man who always had a smile and a wave as I rode my horse through his orchard (maybe to steal an apple or two).

He also left a lifelong impression and work ethic on my brother "Due" whom as a kid, worked in the summers as a "sucker plucker" in the Bulach's orchards.

Our deepest condolences to the Bulach family.

June and family,

Sorry to hear about Joe. He was our neighbour for the last 25 years and always enjoyed talking to him at home and also at the Glenmore Irrigation office.

I have had the honor of knowing Joe for almost 15 years. He was a client at the hearing clinic I work at. He always had a friendly way and it was always a pleasure to see this kind, gentle, pleasant man. I will miss seeing him, but so glad to have known him.

I missed seeing his smiley face when I left the Glenpark Mcdonalds. My parents Ray and Isobel Costa grew up in Glenmore. On behalf on Glenpark Mcdonalds - and from our family, our condolences.
