“Death comes like the birth of a baby, when it’s time. Birth, death, sleep and healing, each comes in its own time. Whatever comes, we can trust that we are in the hands of a God who loves us”.
Jim (J.B.) Bullard of Castle Hayne went to be with his Lord and Savior on January 13th after a long battle with cancer.
Born in Columbus County November 14, 1943 and preceded in death by his parents Claude and Minnie Bullard. He was a member of Wrightsboro Baptist Church where he served as a deacon and usher for many years.
He is survived by his loving wife of 28 years, Alice, his two sons Terry (wife Ashley), Chuck (wife Colleen), and four grandchildren, Van, Caleb, Noah and Shannon.
Jim will be missed by his family, and his many friends. He loved his Lord and Savior and lived his life with trust and faith through all the many years of ill health. He never gave up hope of being healed and he was finally healed, at the feet of Jesus.
