Walter "Wally" Pullen

October 27, 1933 to May 13, 2012

I am sadden to say that after 2 year battle with brain cancer my 
adorable loving father has passed away.

Our favourite photo of  Dad on Our Wedding Day June 7 2003
which just happens to also be their wedding day.


I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who sent cards to my Dad over the past few months. He cherished getting everyone of them and loved to figure out where they came from. I never really told him who how people knew I wanted it to be our secret. 

To the Jeff Gordon Children's Foundation for sending my Dad the best gift ever even though he is not a kid, not only did you bring a smile to my Dad's face but he was ever so proud to show of his personal letter, hat and car. He was like a little kid again. They will passed to his grandson who will honoured to have them.

To all of my friends who have shown me nothing but support, comfort and love over the past 5 months and years, I truly am blessed and so spoiled by your love. 

To everyone who sent gifts, from home baked goods sent express mail, to gift certificates for his favourite food "BIG MAC's". To the milkshakes and desserts he so loved, you showed so much love to a man that never asked for anything and he felt your love.

For those who are in town and wish to stop by here are the times for the wake and funeral:

I will Never say Goodbye


I will never say goodbye to you Dad 
cause I know this is not the end for us to see each other.
You will only be going to a place where there’s no pain nor suffering.
I am happy for you, for you will be with God.
For now we need to go in separate ways.
I remember how your arms hold me and give me comfort and love.
You were always there to listen, love, and laugh.
You were my very best friend. 
In my triumphs I could feel you were always proud.
I’m very grateful and so proud to call you my dad.
Here deep inside my heart you’ll always be the greatest.
I would give up everything I have just to hug you one more time.
I remember the last time I held you’re hand and how strong you held mine.
If only I could turn back the time I would have never let you go. And that would be selfish.
I felt the world stops and my heart stop beating when they told me you’re gone…….
How I wish I was only dreaming.
Just like the rain; tears fell down from my eyes, I couldn’t speak for a while. 
Thank you Dad…. 
For always understanding, listening , caring, and loving me for the rest of your life.
The greatest gift God gave me was YOU…….. my Dad…
It’s difficult to let you go but I must…
I must return the gift God gave me…
Till then;
See you in Heaven………

I love you and you will always be in my heart.
