He was born on April 16, 1952, a son of the late Jack Gulick and June Nix Gulick. He served his country in the United States Army and was a member of Illinois Union Operating Engineers Local 965.
John found something to hunt all year long. Turkey hunting in the Spring, fishing in the Summer, bow Hunting in the Fall, and gun hunting in the Winter. He had a cabin in Southern Illinois where he loved to take his son and grandchildren to turkey, mushroom, and deer hunt for the last 35 years.
