There, he worked with his brother Don, sister-in-law Patricia Stull and many other family members to build a successful business that continues to be run as a family business today. Dominic Stull, his son, has assumed the responsibilities of President, and Dierdre Stull, his daughter, is the Chief Financial Officer.
Stull always looked at the positive side of life and inspired the same attitude in the people around him. He always believed in hard work, honesty and that every individual can make a difference in the world.
