Obituary:

Mr. Kenneth L. Tull, 72, formerly of Pocomoke City and recently of Delmar, Maryland, died on Wednesday, June 28, 2017, at Christiana Hospital in Newark, Delaware from injuries received in a cycling accident on June 15th in Millsboro, Delaware. Born on March 8, 1945 in Baltimore City, Maryland, he was the son of the late Calvin and Evelyn Redden Tull.

Kenneth graduated from Pocomoke High School in 1963 and served in the US Air Force as an Air Force Policeman, receiving a honorable discharge in 1965. He then started his career at NASA Wallops, retiring with 45 years of service as an avionics metal-smith for the sounding rockets program. An avid cyclist, he was active in three different cycling clubs; Shore Velocity and Ocean Velo, where he was the eldest active member of each and the Coastal Cruisers Club in Florida.

Kenneth is survived by one daughter, Kristen Hope Tull and her partner, Lindsay Deel of Baltimore City; two brothers, William "Bill" H. Tull and his wife, Sue of Pocomoke City and Lawrence "Larry" Michael Tull and his wife, Rebecca of Fruitvale, Texas; one niece, Dana Modesto (John)and their two children; one nephew, Greg Tull (Lori) and their two children, and his partner Karen Kay Revel of Delmar, Maryland. His extended family includes cousins and his NASA and cycling "families."

Personal Note:

Kenney loved cycling, and for those of you who have participated in the Run For The Animals in previous years, you would have seen Kenney and his cycling buddies marshaling the race.

Kenney will be forever missed by his family, friends, and fellow cyclists.

Godspeed ....... Till we meet again,
