I can't believe you are gone. I just found out and I'm devastated. I have so many wonderful memories of you. I always thought that we would find each other again before the end of our lives.

I was a patient of Dr. Bullock's many years ago. Only recently have I had a need to update the dental work he provided me (which is a testament to the enduring quality of his great artistry). His was the first name that came to mind when I was considering a doctor. It was with extreme surprise and profound sadness that I came across his obituary. Richard was a gifted doctor and a remarkable person. May he rest in peace.

Dr. Bullock was a great and compassionate dentist and a friend too. It saddens me to hear of his passing. And yes, he loved golf too!
he's smiling but was not happy about that Cubs shirt :)

I met Dr. Bullock a number of years ago when he had his office in Palm Springs. Recently, he completed extensive and excellent work on my aging stepfather. To say that Dr. Bullock was kind, patient, caring, and understanding, seems inadequate. He was a gem of a human being and you could not but help just love the man. I was both stunned and saddened to hear of his passing. I know that he was truly a blessing to so many. He certainly was this to me. He will be so greatly missed. God bless and keep his soul.

My dear friend and colleague Richard,
Though we both practiced dentistry in Santa Monica and didn't know each other at that time, we certainly developed a kindred friendship when I rerired in Palm Desert. I recognized how talented you were as a dentist and felt it was my obligation to refer so many of my family and friends to your practice. I can never forget your kindness when you allowed me to use your office to do some dentistry for my family needs.
To say I was shocked to learn of your untimely passing and I will keep you in my thought always.
Rest in peace, dear friend!!!

My words are not strong enough to express the emotions, love, sense of loss, heartache, and disbelief as weve said good-bye to this exceptional man. We respected, admired, laughed and loved that man and friend.
The hurt and loss of Dick in this earthly life is heartfelt by his family and close friends. With each remembrance of Dick, I smile big and give big thanks to our Creator for putting him in our lives (Phil 1:3). I felt like Dick was a brother. He was so very decent, reliable, kind, generous, personable, honest, disciplined, determined and lived mostly with a lightheartedness and perseverance.
Dr. Richard Bullock was a shining star in our profession of clinical dentistry with his giftedness, vision, creativity, curiosity and abilities. Dicks treatments were exceptional and provided with kindness. He could handle any level of complexity in treatments, and yet it seemed routine for him. His talents and brilliance have become quiet.
Consistently, Dick was a catalyst for laughter, with his magnetic humor and recollections. Dick carried with him many significant family and sports pictures, historic clippings, and fun moments in the lives of the Bullock boys. Pranks abounded between McNally, Bullock and Grummons. Each moment unforgettable! He became a genuine friend of those he would meet. Dick gave to and supported others without expecting anything in return.
Dick declared his faith in Christ in recent years, so he lives eternally with our Lord and Savior. We celebrate this and anticipate that eternity for each of us as well. In this we find joy and peace.
He was very principled and disciplined which showed by his words, actions and generous contributions into the lives of others. I will never stop missing him.
Respectfully and with heavy hearts,
(Dr) Duane and Trudy Grummons

THis is such SAD News. We have been patients and you always feel like a Friend when you spend time with Doc. He had so many interesting stories and was so interesting to listen to. As a patient that's all you really could do what with him working on your Mouth. He really had a captured Patient! Ha. My husband played in the NHL and of Course Doc had So many stories and memories to share. Jimmy being a professional Hockey. Player needed a Dentist. As A Good Friend. Dr Bullock was That. We just happened to see in Desert sun The Obituariy . Of Course was Shocked and SAD. Will keep Family in Prayers and will really miss a GOOD Soul. Thanks Doc for many years of Friendship.
