Billy Joe Rulason, age 49, of Silverwood passed away on Wednesday, August 20, 2025 at Lapeer Regional Hospital, Michigan.

Billy was born March 4, 1976 in Lapeer, Michigan to Floyd and Pamela (Taylor) Rulason. He attended Mayville High School and graduated with the class of 1994. Billy worked as a clerk at the Mr. Chips gas station, where his friendly manner made him well liked by customers and co-workers alike. An avid outdoorsman, Billy enjoyed hunting, fishing, and spending time outdoors. More than anything, Billy cherished the time he spent with his family, creating memories that will be treasured forever.

Billy is survived by his daughters, Jasmine Rulason and Hayley Rulason; his son, Hunter Rulason; and his mother, Pamela Rulason.

Billy was preceded in death by his father, Floyd "Bill" Rulason; Grandma and Grandpa Taylor; and Grandma and Grandpa Mottor.

The family will have a Celebration of Life at a later date.
