Please accept our condolences to the Bullchild family. Also to Phyliss Brison our deepest sympathies. Lyman was and will always be part of our family out here in Tulalip, Washington. He came here to play in a basketball tournament and stayed with our family for long periods of time. Will always remember his first game here he wore small bells on his shoes laces and hearing those come down the court put a little fear in players knowing they were about to get snuffed. Real saddened by hearing of his departure to the spirit world. Lyman was a very compassionate and caring man, our prayers to Phyliss and the Bullchild family.

My first meeting with Lyman occurred eight years ago when I was hired by the Skokomish Tribe as a Natural Resources Planner.  I was immediately impressed with Lyman's work and his mannerism.  His reputation as someone to rely on was well established with the staff of the Fisheries and Natural Resources Departments and over the last eight years I have found his reputation is well deserved.  In 2005, I was asked to be Lyman's supervisor and I served in that capacity. Lyman had a strong commitment to work and to the development of teamwork and practices those skills everyday.  Overall, Lyman's capacity to handle very difficult situation—was an outstanding quality.  His reliability and decision making was witness by many individuals including professionals working with the state and federal governments (which also depend upon his work).  Lyman's capacity to do detail sampling with follow through is highly professional and his temperament is a great benefit at work. Most of all Lyman was my friend and I miss him.  I wish all of Lyman's family the best and hope that his son and daughter will have a peaceful life with a good memory of their father.  I know that Lyman loved you both.

Harvey and Carolyn RunningCrane Whitford deeply regret hearing the news of our brother and cousin's passing while we were in Albuquerque. We are deeply saddend. Ruby his daughter was in our wedding 1993. We enjoyed being  a part of the family.His father,Percy Bullchild adopted Carolyn and gave her the name Catches the last horse,which she carries to this day. We miss you Big and pray for you and the family everyday.We will meet again some day.

The people of the Skokomish Tribe truly regret the passing of our friend Lyman.  He was well loved and respected by his fellow employees.  He was a valuable employee who made valuable contributions to the Tribe in the management of our natural resources over a period of 17 years.  He had a legacy knowledge of our waterways and byways,knowledge that can never be replaced. My prayers and condolences go out to his entire family during this time.  Lyman will be truly missed.

I worked with Lyman at the Skokomish Tribe for many years.  He had the best work ethic of anyone I've ever worked with.  He was first in the office nearly every day, having a pot of coffee ready for everyone while wiping down the kitchen counters.  He was a gentle giant and never said a bad word about anyone. I enjoyed my years working with him and he will be missed because I know he was loved by all who knew him.  May he rest in peace.  My prayers are with the Bullchild family.

Lyman and I started work the same day at Skokomish Fisheries, July 5 1994. We shared many hours walking through forests and streams. He took very seriously his role in monitoring habitat for salmon in the Skokomish watershed.  I remember him as a gentle man, very meticulous in detail, and had a natural affinity for the outdoors.  He was quite proud of his son Percy and his daughter Ruby. I will remember him fondly and extend my condolences to his friends and family.  He will be missed.

Best of memories, a good friend, you will always be with us and will live in our hearts,your shoehorn friend.           Guy Miller

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
