Gary Hulbert Obituary

Gary R. Hulbert

Gary R. Hulbert, a good man, has departed this vale of tears on April 17, 2005.
Gary was born in Spokane, on October 18, 1938, to Clarence and Ruth Hulbert. He graduated from Mead High School in 1956 and entered the U.S. Marine Corps. Upon his honorable discharge from the Marines, he entered the University of Washington and graduated with a B.A. degree in Business in 1964.
He was predeceased by his parents; and his brother, Jim.
Gary is survived by his loving wife, Sue; his daughter, Kelly; and his stepchildren, John (Anja) Webber, of Munich, Melanie (Mike) Huff, of Everett, and Brent (Kathi) Webber, of Seattle; five grandchildren, Beau Garrison, Rachel and Holly Huff, and Jackson and Emma Webber; and nieces and nephews on the East Coast.
Gary pursued a career in Human Resources and in 1981 started his own business with his wife - Hulbert Associates, in Snohomish, Washington.
As per his wishes, no services are planned. As a memorial to Gary - stop smoking now, before it's too late.

Please know my thoughts are with your family during this time. Gary was always upbeat and had a great sense of humor. His eyes always held a twinkle of happiness. I will always be thankful to Sue and Gary for their part in hiring me at the City of Arlington.

It's strange now to come home to my mom's and find Gary not there. For the last 26 years he was not only a great husband to my mother, but a second father to me, Brent and Melanie. The world is a poorer place without him.

It was always a pleasure working with Gary. He took care of the human resources needs for the City of Arlington for many years. Gary always had the greatest sense of humor and mischievous sparkle in his eyes. I was sad to learn of his passing and have Sue and the family in my thoughts and prayers.

Gary, Thank you for teaching me many things and giving Kathi her first job in the business world. I know you are taking care of horses right now or diving your John Deere tractor. Thank you for spending 26 wonderful years with my mom. We all will miss you. Brent

Gary was a good friend to all of us in City Government (Arlington). We always joked with him about, be careful when Gary invites you (an employee)to lunch :-)He generally brought humor to the job, but was very proficent in the work that he did.

My best to you Sue and hope that all the days ahead will be easier for you.

I had the pleasure of knowing Gary when he and Sue worked for the City of Arlington. No matter the task - he always dealt with our personnel matters in a pleasant manner. We often joked to beware if he invited you to lunch. Many times if he left his briefcase unattended we would add something to it, a funny sticker that he wouldn't find for some time or a silly pamphlet. As you can tell he will remain fondly in my heart. Take care and know that my thoughts are with Sue and the family.
