ENOSBURGH - Preston H. Hull age 76 passed away on Saturday, June 10, 2023, at UVM Medical Center.

 

Preston was born in West Enosburgh on March 14, 1947, to the late Lynford & Ruth (Preston) Hull.

 

Preston "Doc" served in the United States Army as a combat medic in Vietnam where he was awarded The Purple Heart, The Bronze Star, and The Air Medal. We are all thankful for Preston's service to our country. In addition, he served in the Vermont Jaycee's for numerous years and owned Hull's Auto for twenty years. He was an avid hunter and fisherman and enjoyed traveling between United States and Canada hunting whitetail deer with his lifelong friends. Preston also enjoyed taking his grandkids on fishing trips. In his later years, he enjoyed spending time in Florida. Preston helped many people that were struggling with alcoholism through the years and would have received his 20-year chip in August of this year. Preston can be credited with touching the hearts of many and saving countless lives. His dedication and service will never be forgotten.

Preston was a pleasure to be around and to work with for many years. After getting to know him, he was a great man. To me he defined what a hero and what bravery meant. He was very humble and a pleasure to be around. I will never forget him.
