William Michael Stulp, lost his battle with Cancer on October 22, 2024, at the age of 48.
His wife and partner in love and life for the last 21 years was by his side holding his hand as requested.
William Michael Stulp was born on January 16, 1976, in Muskegon, MI. William, fondly known as Bill, spent most of his life in Kalamazoo, Michigan, but his best years were spent in Plainwell enjoying the peace of country living. He worked at Humphrey Products, where his dedication was evident in his 29-year tenure. Bill also helped his wife with her floral business. Bill was the one who originally encouraged her to start the business and ultimately helped her with countless deliveries and wedding setups over the last 9 years.
Bill was a man who found joy in the simple pleasures of life, such as mowing the lawn, being outside, and most importantly, cherishing time with his family. He was a loving husband to Stacy, whom he married on September 13, 2008. Above all, Bill adored his role as a father for all three of his children. He was surprised and delighted when Mason came into the world in 2019. The Family enjoyed taking long weekend trips together often visiting different zoos and of course, Legoland. Bill loved Legos, and he has passed that love on to Mason.
Bill was a man of faith. Although he had not been a regular churchgoer for several years, he found solace in his faith and began attending services again over the summer at Radiant Church in Richland; where both he and Stacy were baptized shortly after they were married. His faith was reflected in his everyday life and in his relationship with those around him.
Bill's love for his family, his wife, his children, and his nieces, and nephew - was profound and unwavering, and it is this love that will be his enduring legacy. Bill was quiet and kind. And those who knew him best also knew how funny he was. He had a smile that would light up a room.
He is survived by his wife, Stacy Stulp; his children, Dakota, Meadow and Mason; his father, Frederick Stulp; his mother, Judith Ewing; and his brother, Donald Stulp (Troy Lutke).
As we mourn the loss of William, we also celebrate his life, his love, and his spirit. We invite all those who knew him to share their memories and photos on the memorial page, to help paint a vibrant picture of his life and keep his memory alive in our hearts. Remember him as he was - a loving, loyal, kind, and humble soul, who made this world a little brighter.
