Our Hero

Our hero, Cully Charles Kuhl, passed away peacefully in the presence of God on the afternoon of Saturday, December 28.

After battling for 63 days the little man’s body was no longer able to sustain. It was a blessing to have been given eight-weeks to spend with Cully and in his final hours loving family surrounded him. 

One might say the odds were stacked against Cully from the beginning and for him to have survived as long as he did is nothing short of a miracle.   We feel blessed to have had the time we did with him.  During Cully’s short life he taught us so much about life, love, friendship, strength, faith and family.

The team at Children’s Hospitals and Clinics of Minnesota is nothing short of amazing. We made friends, we will not soon forget, who cared for our son with such compassion and professionalism words cannot express our gratitude.  The CVCC Unit is filled with an astonishing team of doctors and nurses, whom we are forever in debt to for the time they were able to provide us with Cully.  We ask that all gifts or donations be directed to the Children's Hospitals and Clinics Cardiovascular Critical Care Unit in Memory of Cully Charles Kuhl (http://givemn.razoo.com/story/Cully-Charles-Kuhl).  

We can’t say enough about the unbelievable support network we have.  Each and everyday you all have amazed us with your thoughts, prayers and love.  Words cannot express the feelings of appreciation and love we have.  Thank you!

We will be celebrating Cully’s life at 10:00 am, Tuesday, December 31, at Saint Mary's Episcopal Church (1895 Laurel Avenue, Saint Paul, MN) with a reception to follow at Eagle Street Grille (174 West 7th Street, Saint Paul, MN 55102) at 11:30am.  We invite all to join us in our celebration of life.
