William MULOCK

MULOCK, William (Bill) Richard It is with deep sorrow, to inform family and friends, that William (Bill) Richard Mulock, C1ERA (Ret'd) crossed the bar, peaceful, in the early morning hours of April 6, 2018, with his Wife, Anne and Son, Todd holding his hand, at Home. Dad was born in Bridgewater, Nova Scotia, on February 24, 1933, to John and Frances Mulock (both Deceased). He joined the Navy on August 25, 1950, as a Marine Engineer, and sailed on various ships on the East Coast, with the highlight of his career, being C1ERA on both the HMCS Protecteur and HMCS Preserver, and two postings as a Career Manager. His final posting was with the Frigate Project, working on Technical Publications, ending when he retired in 1987. The Decommissioning Pennant, not being raised yet, Dad accepted a position with the Canadian Frigate Project, in the Public Service, as a Quality Assurance Representative, for 9 years. At the end of his Public Service career, and finally finished with Main Engines, Dad chose to stay in the Ottawa area with his wife, Anne, to enjoy his retirement. He battled Prostate Cancer, in 2002, and knocked it out of the ring, only to come back with Asbestos related plural Lymphoma with a partner called Alzheimer's, 12 years later. He is survived by his loving wife of 59 years, Anne J. Mulock (Doyle), three children, Wilma (Sean OGrady), Darlene and Todd, and several grandchildren and great-grandchildren, nieces and a nephew, cousins and sister-in-law Laura Mulock, plus Iris, his feline sidekick. Alex , a grandson, was able to say So Long and tell him his future plans, by his bedside, something that Alex, wanted to do, and he also looked up to his Grandfather. My father was the last surviving member of his family, predeceased by his brother David and Sister Marion (Bonnie) Hiltz. Our family would like to thank the Palliative Care Doctors (Dr Jennifer Brodeur and Dr Lisa Aldrich), and Nurses, Emily, Margaret Ann, Lesley, Ann and Moui, who made his last days comfortable, at Home, the Atlantic Chief and POs Association, especially James Cummings, and his family Doctor Alice Shin. Funeral Mass will take place at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church, 400 St Laurent Blvd, at 11 a.m. on May 16, 2018. Burial at Beechwood Cemetery at 2 p.m., with Military honours. Rest in Peace Dad, No more pain, We Will Remember You.
