William Randall Hulse of Greenport died on August 20 at the Kanas Center for Hospice Care on Quiogue. He was 73.
Mr. Hulse was born March 17, 1943 to William T. Hulse and Ella Randall Hulse, both of whom predeceased him, of Westhampton Beach. He attended Ryder College after high school and later went into banking. He also worked for the Southampton Town Police Department as a dispatcher before retiring to open a liquor store in Westhampton Beach.
An avid genealogist, Mr. Hulse belonged to 25 historical societies and family associations both locally and nationally. At Mr. Hulse’s request, his personal genealogy collection will be donated to the Mattituck-Laurel Library as a research tool for others pursuing their family history. The database on Mr. Hulse’s personal computer exceeds 60,000 names, dates and cited sources with an additional 15 binders housing documents pertaining to many of those he has researched.
Mr. Hulse is survived by his wife, Pamela Lyons Hulse, formerly of Sag Harbor; a stepson, Jason Dombkowski and wife, Heather; and two step-grandsons, Bergen and Cooper; and a daughter, Meredith Sayre Hulse of Bridgehampton. He was predeceased by a granddaughter, Chyann Sayre Leggard.
Services, under the direction of Follett-Werner Funeral Home, were held on August 23, and included a brief service by the Elks as Mr. Hulse was a life member. Following cremation, the Reverend Charles Cary of the Westhampton Beach Presbyterian Church officiated at the graveside service at Oakland Cemetery in Sag Harbor.
