Nancy Moody Bulluck

We give thanks to God for our mothers life. Nancy Currin Moody Bulluck, age 82, our dearly loved mother, grandmother, and friend to everyone she met, passed away on Monday September 30, 2013, after an extended illness. She was born in a farmhouse to John G. and Lucille Greene Moody at the Moody family farm in Townsville, North Carolina on July 4, 1931. She graduated from Townsville High School at the age of 17, and worked the next year on the farm until she became old enough to apply to Park View Nursing School in Rocky Mount. She also was a nurse intern at hospitals in both Maryland and Wilmington, North Carolina as part of her nursing training. She graduated as a Registered Nurse from Park View Nursing School in 1951, and began working as a floor nurse at Park View Hospital. She had a deep faith that she shared through her work with those privileged to be her patients. She married Paul Raymond Bulluck, Jr. on September 20, 1953, and they were married for 54 years until his death in 2007. After their marriage began, family became the main focus of her life as God blessed her to become a mother to four children who survive her: Paul Raymond Bulluck, III (Jan), Stuart Moody Bulluck (Jerry), Joan Blair Bulluck Davis (Jeff), and Henry Thomas Bulluck (Sheri). She gradually became a full-time mother, but the urge for nursing never left her spirit. She satisfied her craving for serving others by volunteering at the local Red Cross blood mobile regularly, as well as being the “unofficial nurse” of the neighborhood. All the children in the Oakwood neighborhood spent their free time at the Bulluck home on Kirkwood Avenue because mother made them all feel welcome and loved. She also was one of the best cooks on the block. Mother had a deep Christian faith that she shared by example. She was a longtime active member of Second Presbyterian Church, serving as a Sunday School teacher, youth group leader, choir director, Elder, Deacon, and Clerk of the Session. She was also an active member of the Oakwood Garden Club where she served in different officer capacities. She also served as a volunteer for Contact Near, a Christian faith-based counseling organization that provided telephone counseling for people experiencing an emotional crisis. She spent countless volunteer hours in training and as a phone counselor. In addition to her husband, she is predeceased by her parents and three of her siblings: Willard Moody, Bernard Moody, and Sally Moody Knight. In addition to her four children, she is survived by her brother and two sisters: Billy Moody, Anne Moody Fogleman, and Carolyn Moody Norwood. Six adoring grandchildren also survive her: Ashley Blair Davis, Brandon Paul Bulluck, Matthew Foster Davis, Jonathan Taylor Bulluck, Andrew Thomas Bulluck, and Nathan Timothy Bulluck as well as many nieces and nephews.
