It is with profound sadness that the family announce the passing of Douglas "Doug" M. Gullison on Tuesday February 4, 2025, at the Charlotte County Hospital St. Stephen, NB, after a courageous battle with cancer.
Doug was born in St. Stephen, NB in 1968 to Glen and the late Joey (Leslie) Gullison.
After graduating in 1986 at the St. Stephen High School St. Stephen, NB, Doug joined the military and was posted in Calgary, Alberta. While in Calgary, he became a father to Steph and Josh. He then had a posting in Gagetown, NB, where he then retired in 1995.
After retiring from the military, Doug worked various jobs. His passion and true skill was in landscaping. He had proudly created many works of art in the Sussex and Charlotte County areas.
During nonworking hours, Doug enjoyed hunting, fishing, camping, softball and hockey. You would find him on the golf course several times a week.
In recent years, he also enjoyed watching his granddaughter, Chloe playing hockey or fishing with his grandsons; Isaac and Alex or sneaking naps on the couch with Amelia and Jacob.
Just weeks before his passing, he immensely enjoyed a trip to Montreal, PQ with his brothers to watch the Montreal Canadiens play and win!
