Lorraine Marie Tull

Lorraine Marie Tull was born in San Leandro, California to Bruno and Rose (Saleh) Tosi on December 14th, 1925. The family moved to Fresno, and Lorraine attended Fresno Tech and graduated from Roosevelt High School in 1942.

Lorraine met Lloyd (Chuck) Tull at the Falls Resort at Bass Lake, and they were married on June 7, 1945. Together they raised a family of three, Denise, Jodie and Scott. Lorraine worked for many years as a bookkeeper at Frontier Chevrolet, and later was an integral part in the family business, Allied Plumbing, Inc. Most would say she was the boss.

Lorraine was an active member of Hope Lutheran Church. She enjoyed visits to Chuck’s home and family in Maryland and later their vacation home in Santa Cruz, California. Lorraine and Chuck travelled the world after their retirement, often joined by family and friends.

Lorraine passed away November 9th, 2022 with family and caregivers at her side.

Lorraine will be remembered for her fierce love and devotion to her family and friends, and her famous pasta and meatballs.

Lorraine was preceded in passing by her husband of 65 years, Chuck. She is survived by her children Denise Brosi, Jodie Garabedian and Scott Tull, grandchildren Deena, Jenna and Cayla Brosi, Gage and Trace Garabedian, Madelyn Tull and Kaytie Cochran, and son-in-laws Gene Garabedian and Robert Brosi.

The family would like to acknowledge and thank Lorraine’s caregivers Ovsanna, Lusine and Arpine.
