Obituary of Edward James DeHullu

Sodus: Lived 94 years and passed peacefully in his sleep on Thursday, May 5, 2022. Born on January 25, 1928, and raised on a fruit farm, he learned how to fix just about anything. He was always enamored trying to figure out how things worked. While working for East Williamson Hardware, he was always willing to go out in the middle of the night to restore heat. At 21, he became a member of the Sodus Masonic Lodge.  He was always proud of his membership, became Master and still wore his Lodge ring.  He lived the majority of his life in the Sodus area. We always joked that he knew or was related to just about everyone who lived in Sodus and Williamson.

He is survived by daughters: Linda (David) Fosdick, Vicki (Mark) DeHullu.  Step children: Kathleen (Peter) Morton, David (Carol) Noonen, SueAnne (Charles) Noonen.  Sisters: Florence Cowell, Ethel Nussbaumer and Marian Goulette.  Grandchildren: Lauren, Robin, Adam, Karen, Leah, Marlena, Jessica, Cullen, Claire, Arie, Holland and Quinn.  Great-grandchildren: Hannah, Rachel, Avery, Ethan, Eleanor, Bridget, Sabrina, Chase, Easton, Raven, Arienna, Bria.

He is predeceased by his wives, Ethel DeCann DeHullu and Helen Fenner-Noonen DeHullu; his parents, Olen and Lavina DeHullu; daughter, Anne Symonds; and his siblings, Clifford DeHullu and Castelle DeHullu Boekhout.
