Beulah Lee McCulley (Boots) of Richland, Washington joined her beloved husband, Lloyd Winston (Winn), in the arms of our Heavenly Father on November 15th.  Boots was born in Natural Dam, Arkansas in 1934.  She moved to Portland, Oregon with her mother Olivia Fain Nichols and her brother Gilbert where they lived for several years, eventually moving to Richland, Washington where she spent the rest of her life. 

Boots graduated from Columbia high school in 1952 and went to work at Hanford.   She met her husband Winn at a dance at Camp Hanford where he was stationed in the Army.  They married and raised 6 children together. They both loved to dance and kept their social life lively by joining the Prairie Shuffler Square Dancers.  Boots loved to play any type of card or board game, it was the card games that kept her mind active the last couple years of her life.   Boots was passionate about many things in life.  She was creative and unafraid to learn a new hobby.  She loved gardening, reading, puzzles, sewing, baking, bird watching, growing orchids, and drawing.  During retirement she took up Tolle painting and spent countless hours painting the woodwork her husband created.  Boots was an active member of Christ the King and Holy Spirit churches.  She worked with the Christ the King Chaplaincy for several years giving comfort to those in need.  She was preceded in death by her husband Lloyd Winston McCulley (Winn), her mother Olivia Nichols, her sister Carole Nichols, and her brother David Nichols.  She is survived by her brother Gilbert Fain (Nora), and her six children, Winston McCulley (Annette), Sherry Shulkin (Rick), Cara Kelly (Pat), Gary McCulley (Celeste), Lance McCulley (Kim), Anne Chapman (Vince), 10 grandchildren and 5 great grandchildren and special cousins Anna, Betty, Danny and Debbie.
