Curtis William Nulle

Curtis William Nulle was born January 27,

1948, at Mitchell, SD, and was adopted by

Fred and Fran Nulle. He attended school in

Bath, SD, and was raised on a mink farm. He

Dakota State University in Brookings. Curt

finished his education in Wapheton, ND. He

Curt was employed by the South Dakota Game Fish and Parks Department in

the Aberdeen area. He applied for the Chief of Police position in Ipswich and

worked there from 1983 until 1988.

The family moved to Belle Fourche and Curt was a police officer with the

Belle Fourche Department from 1988 until he retired. Curt rescued many animals

from the shelter and found good homes for them.

Curt had too many "honey do's" at home so he went to work for the City of

control officer.

He still enjoyed hunting, fishing, and the outdoors. At the time of his death, he

was training a tracking dog.
