Sydney
After a lengthy battle with illness, my brother, Lawrence Everett Tull, passed away on Friday, April 23, 2021 at the Northside Community Guest Home, North Sydney.
Born on March 13, 1950 in Sydney, Duff was the son of the late Avis Olivia Tull.
Lawrence was a member of St Philip’s African Orthodox Church, Whitney Pier.
Besides his mother, Duff was predeceased by his partner, Paula Hickey; brother, Martin ‘Marty’ Tull and his son, Tyler Hickey (the pride and joy of his life).
Lawrence is survived by his brother, Melvin Tull (Evie), Mississauga; nephews, Michael and Mikal; nieces, Cherrise, Olivia and godson, Aaron Talbot.
Duff will be sadly missed by many cousins and friends. Special thanks to cousins, Eloise Stoddard, Raymond Ettienne and long-time friends, Dennis Talbot, Curtis Shepard and Glen Morrison, who were always there to sit and laugh with him and help out in anyway that they could. Thank you for all the phone calls, kind words and special condolences. For all of your phone calls and spiritual support, we want to thank Rev. Mother Phyllis Jarvis Marsh for your care and attention to Lawrence.
Thank you to the doctors and nurses at the Cape Breton Regional Hospital and Northside Guest Home who looked after Lawrence in his time of need.
There will be no memorial service scheduled at this difficult time due to Covid-19.
Donations in memory of Duff may be made to a charity of one’s choice.
