Michael William "Mike" Dull1,2,3

M, b. September 21, 1954, d. December 10, 2020
     Michael William "Mike" Dull Our beloved husband, dad and granddaddy, Michael W. "Mike" Dull passed from this life and has been released from his pain as of Thursday, December 10, 2020. Mike proudly served for seven years in the U S Army as a Military Policeman. He then retired, after 26 years, with the Roanoke County Police Department. He loved his family first and foremost. He also loved his dogs, going to football games, Fox News, playing cards and solitare, chauffeuring his grandchildren around; and as they got older, he enjoyed spending time by simply hanging out with them. Mike lived a life of service. He protected the people and things that he loved: his country, community, and most of all, his family. Surviving are his wife of 39 years, Paula; children, Paul (Candice), Michelle, Ben (Trent); nephew who was more like a son, Chad; grandchildren, Kaitlyn, Will "Bubba", Madison and Hudson; sister, Rose (Rickey); brother, Eddie (Pam); mother-in-law, Mildred; brother-in-law and sister-in-law, Mark and Claire; nephews, Andrew and Emerson; and other friends and family members too numerous to mention. The family would like to offer a very special thank you to the ICU staff at the Veterans Administration Medical Center in Salem, and the Palliative Care staff at Carilion Roanoke Memorial Hospital for their excellent care and many acts of kindness and compassion.3 He was born on September 21, 1954 at Roanoke, Virginia.1,2 He married Cheryl Ann Reed, daughter of Lewis Hurt Reed and Myrtle Louise Ferguson, on December 22, 1972 at Roanoke, Virginia.1 Michael William "Mike" Dull and Cheryl Ann Reed were divorced on July 1, 1981 at Roanoke, Virginia.2 Michael William "Mike" Dull died on December 10, 2020 at Virginia at age 66.3
