Pete Bulaga was born on July 9, 1933 in Warsaw Poland to Mike and Anna Bulaga. He left this earth to meet Jesus on August 11, 2017. He is survived by his wife of 62 years, Jeannette Bulaga, and their children Sandra Dunlap, Tina Richardson (Warren), and Shane Bulaga; 10 grandchildren, 15 great-grandchildren with one on the way, and one great great grandchild; numerous foster children and grandchildren, as well as numerous nieces and nephews, all whom he loved dearly. Pete and his family immigrated to America in 1951 and first settled in Berkeley, California where Pete obtained his first job working in gardening and landscaping. A short time later they moved near Eureka, California to the Dennsmore Cattle Ranch where Petes childhood dream of becoming a cowboy became a reality. A year later he moved to Rio Dell, California where he eventually met and married his wife Jeannette. They immediately started their family and went into ministry together working for the Lord. Pete evangelized and he pastored for 47 years until he retired from pastoring in 2012. His entire life was dedicated to serving the Lord. Pete adored his wife Jeannette, he loved his family, and he loved sharing Jesus and praying for others. He never met a stranger and everyone who knew him loved him. Pete loved to laugh and make others laugh, and his infectious smile will be missed by many. The family would like to thank Dr. James Campbell; Optimal Hospice and their supportive staff; and everyone who came to see Pete before his passing. The love and support shown to the family during that time is greatly appreciated.
