We just heard the news about Bill. We are praying for the family during this difficult time. Bill will be missed.David & Phannee Fauth and Family
From 1971 – 1986 Mr. Bullard had a Goebel in his class. If my sisters would have been able to take Ag at the time, I'm sure it would have been a few years longer. I know he had a roll in what we are today. It seemed like Mr. Bullard and our dad had a special relationship. One of us did something at school and Mr. Bullard called our dad. He told dad what had happen. He said he could handle it but thought our dad would rather take care of it. Guess what, he did but I don't think it would have been much different if Mr. Bullard would have handled it. No matter what, it never happened again. Mr. Bullard was respected by everyone. He was like a second dad to me and I told him that once, maybe twice. I'm sure though it was the same for many of his students. He was a leader, a mentor a loving father, husband, grandfather and friend. What he was as a person was hard to find then let alone now. There was only one Mr. Bullard. Thank you for everything. Rest in peace Mr. Bullard. You deserve it.
Mike…..I am so sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. I have not seen him in years, but did get to meet your "baby brother" last year at my niece's graduation. I am still a Home Ec teacher and probably will be forever. My sympathy to you all.Bev Storer

Linda and family,So sorry for the loss of your dad. We are thinking of you and hope that great memories fill your heart.David, Susan and Logan Allen
Bill Bullard was directly responsible for me becoming an agriculture teacher. After changing my major a couple times while a student at LLCC, I stopped by the high school to congratulate him on his upcoming retirement. He asked about my future plans in college, and encouraged me to consider Ag Education as a major at UIUC. It would lead to a wide variety of job options after graduation, he said. It may have, but after two degrees and 27 years of teaching agriculture at MHS and now LLCC, I found my calling. Thanks for your encouragement, support, and help whenever I asked. God bless and keep you Bill, and my prayers are with the family.Bill Harmon, MHS Class of 1984
I had seen Mr. Bullard last year and reminded him of this, but in high school he lectured me and some of my friends about smoking (they smoked but l didn't) WHILE he was SMOKING during the whole lecture. When I mentioned it to him last year he laughed about it and said "well you do as l say not as l do". He was a great man. Prayers to Dorothy and family.
Bill loved to tell me stories about teaching my dad in school. My thoughts and prayers are with Dorothy and the family!
Mr. Bullard was always there providing advise, confidence, and guidance…..during school and anytime. My most cherished memories of high school were made in Ag class and FFA involvement. Mr. Bullard was not only a GREAT educator but a GREAT friend to my and many families. Always ready to lend a hand, a tool, or whatever he could to help anyone. Rest in Peace Mr. Bullard your place in paradise is much deserved!Mark Ashbrook
So sorry for your loss Chuck and Linda.
