For Bob Cullings – My Big Brother

I’m, Bulbus Boyd, the blithesome billowy, brock, bamboozling balderdash. I’m Bob’s little brother and this is the prologue to the litany he authored for me and which I had to recite in order to gain entry to the Lambda house during pledging period. Yes, we did have hazing then. I always felt very comfortable with Bob as my big brother and mentor during this experience. While he let me experience the fullness of being a pledge, I always knew he...

Bob Cullings– Friend and Roommate

The first time I met Bob 55 years ago, we had a fight. It was only a few weeks after we started our freshmen year at Clarkson. There had been some kind of skirmish between my dorm, North – 3, and the nearby Holcroft House residents. It was more like kibitzing, but Bob and I wound up wrestling in the grass. It was friendly and we laughed about it. But I remember thinking - he was smaller than me but one tough guy!

A Tribute to our brother Bob Cullings ‘59


Bob Cullings............some memories and observations about the Athletic and gritty side of Bob from a friend and Clarkson Soccer Teammate.

Belle- My unfortunate timing was to meet Bob across the line in a freshman intramural football game. I Never got bye him once. Bob was such a tough competitor. Later meetings with Bob were far more pleasant experiences. We all remember Bob as an energetic, can do type of guy that you liked being with. It was an honor to call him a brother and good friend. He could take a good ribbing about any subject but his Belle. His care for our mascot “Clancy” as if he were his own, is remembered as...

Belle, I am so sorry to hear about the passing of "Cull" and for your loss. He was a fine and strong man.I enjoyed my Lambda and Clarkson days with him and I can still see him dressed up in his costume at one of the Lambda parties and laughing. I enjoyed the grit and determination he displayed when playing soccer. He was a true credit to the college, the fraternity and his friends! May God hold him in the palm of his hand and may he rest in eternal peace.
