Larry M. Bullock, 73, of Owensboro went to be with the Lord on June 8, 2021 after fighting a courageous battle with cancer for the past two years. Larry was born in Owensboro on July 28, 1947 to the late Harold R. Bullock and Mary Wood Bullock.
Larry worked most of his career at Aleris in Lewisport, KY and later with PPG Industries before retiring as a Sales and Quality Control Technician. He was a member of Maceo Baptist Church.
Larry loved the outdoors and all activities it offered. He was an avid hunter, enjoyed boating and also enjoyed golfing with his friends at Ben Hawes. He especially liked to entertain at Rough River where he cherished the memories of getting together with family (especially the grandkids) and friends from Timberlake where he had served as Secretary Treasurer of the Association. He looked forward to basketball season where he and a special group of friends would gather and watch Kentucky Basketball. He was also a jack of all trades knowing how to build or fix anything he encountered and enjoyed helping his friends and family with projects.
