William Coull Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Lynch & Sons Funeral Directors- Milford on Jan. 29, 2026.
William John Coull, a devoted husband, father, and grandfather, passed into the arms of his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on January 27, 2026. Born on March 27, 1954, in Hamilton, Ontario, Bill's life was defined by a steadfast faith and an enduring love for his family. He is survived by his beloved wife and high school sweetheart, Jody, with whom he shared 52 beautiful years of marriage. His legacy lives on through his children, Jennifer (Stephen), Jonathan (Alexa), and Shannon; his cherished grandsons, Aiden and Landon; and his siblings, Judy (Rich) and Jack (Jeanie).

A man of many passions, Bill found peace and joy on the open water and the open road, fueling his love for sailing and motorcycles. He felt a deep connection to his roots, especially during summers spent "down home" in New Richmond, Quebec, where his parents originated. For twenty years, the shores of South Haven, Michigan, served as the backdrop for precious family memories on Lake Michigan. Bill will be remembered for his unwavering devotion to the Lord and the quiet strength he provided to those he loved.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to Cornerstone Church of Highland to continue the gospel of Jesus.

Please see below for service details. For further questions, please call Lynch & Sons, Milford at 248-684-6645.
