Richard "Dick" Pullo, age 80, of Lansing, IL, passed away peacefully on Saturday, April 30. Dick was a devoted husband and father. He is survived by his wife of 59 years, Shirley (nee Christ) Pullo, his daughters Patricia (Robert) Peters and Mary (Brian) Reidenga, his cherished grandchildren Gianna and Michael Reidenga and his sister Adrienne (Randall) Weiss. He was preceded in death by his beautiful daughter Julie Ann Pullo and his brother R. Edward Pullo.

Dick was a retiree having served Inland Steel for 43 years. Throughout his life he had a passion for road trips and sight-seeing and often spoke about the many destinations he and his wife visited. Whether it be the Chicago lakefront, Key West Florida, Niagara Falls or simply traveling to see the changing fall colors, driving was always his enjoyment. More recently his "field trips" took him back to his Indiana roots. Dick enjoyed reminiscing about growing up while he visited Hessville, Whiting and East Chicago.
