GERALD DEAN BULLARD
May 13, 1931—Nov. 3, 2020
Gerald Bullard passed away at 89_years
old on Nov. 3. 2020, at his home in
Newcastle, Wyo., joinng his wife Judy and
son, Jerry, in heaven.
Gerald was born May 13, 1931, to
Cecil Dean and Dora Hildred (Boyd)
Bullard in Wister, Okla. The Bullards
moved to Stonewall, Okla., when Gerald
was 14. Cecil purchased
The Main Theatre where
Gerald found two life-
long loves: movies and
his wife, Judy.
Gerald married Judy
Thompson on May 21,
1950. Together, they
raised four children,
Jerry, John, Craig and
Melinda. Gerald and
Judy were a “dynamic duo,” running mul-
tiple successful businesses. They were a
team, both at work and at home.
The couple planned to purchase a
movie theatre in Fort Gibson, Okla., but
it burned down before the sale, leading
Gerald to take his first job in the oil field.
That work led to a move to Wyoming and
the founding of Goodwell, Inc. in 1968 at
Upton, Wyo.
Gerald’s two passions were movie the-
aters and the oil field, which he worked not
only to make a living, but because he loved
them. Gerald and Judy owned theaters in
Wyoming, Nebraska and South Dakota.
Goodwell and GEJU Theatres played a
major role in the lives of the entire family.
Gerald and Judy were nomadic, trav-
eling between their various businesses
in Wyoming and Nebraska. After Judy’s
death, he returned to Wyoming in 2011 and
remained active with the businesses and
traveled with his dog, Ruby.
Gerald’s passions, outside of movies,
were bowling with Judy and fishing with
his boys. His fishing trips took him as far
away as Canada.
Gerald is survived by his brothers,
Wayne Bullard (Pat) of Allen, Okla., and
Jimmy Bullard (Marilyn) of Tulsa, Okla.;
sister, Sue Herrin of Oklahoma City, Okla.;
sons, John Bullard (Susan) of Spearfish,
SD, and Craig Bullard (Janine) of
Alliance, Neb;, daughter, Melinda Powell
Gerald
Bullard
(David) of Gretna, Neb; and daughter-in-
law, Rosalie Bullard of Evans, Colo. He
also leaves behind many grandchildren
and great-grandchildren. He will be sorely
missed by all.
Gerald was preceded in death by his
beloved wife, Judy; eldest son, Jerry; and
his sister, Linda Kay Rowe.
Cremation has taken place and Gerald
will be inumed next to Judy at the United
Methodist Church in Alliance. The family
will host a memorial service May 13,
2021, at the Dogie Theatre in Newcastle.
Contact John, Craig or Melinda for more
information.
Those who wish to honor Gerald may
make a donation to the charity of their
choosing. Memorials and condolences may
be sent in care of Meridian Mortuary, 111
S. Railroad Ave., Newcastle, WY 82701.
Condolences may also be expressed at
