Sep 23, 1950 - Jul 08, 2023
Thomas Orville McNulty, age seventy-two, of Ottawa Ontario, peacefully passed away on July 8th, 2023 after a long battle with several health complications.
Born in Ottawa, Ontario at the Grace Hospital to Thomas and Jeanne McNulty, Thomas was the fifth child in a family of six children. Thomas was fiercely passionate about computers, reading and woodworking and dedicated his life to his pursuit of family and happiness.
Thomas would reinvent himself as his passions evolved for woodworking and computers. He lived a balanced life and was always ready to lend a hand to others whether it was joining the Search and Rescue party, fixing a friend’s computer or letting the neighbours borrow from his famous movie collection.
Thomas was a dedicated, kind, loving, and supportive father. His knowledge and values were the foundation of his family. His sense of humour was contagious and he possessed a hardy laugh.
Thomas was also a passionate astronomer and enthusiast. He spent most of his retirement laughing with friends and family. He was predeceased by his brother Rick McNulty and leaves behind his siblings Jean McNulty, Paul McNulty, Lucille Russet, Carol Jacques, as well as his children Thomas Edward McNulty, Keridwen McNulty, Kathleen McNulty and his grandchildren Liam Blackler and Ethan Blackler .

It is with sadness when I think of the passing of Tom but it also brings fond memories of times shared together. I can remember his ecstatic words to the nurse as he saw our beautiful daughter being born.He influenced my life in many ways back then giving me the courage to achieve many personal endeavours. He shared his love of books with me and I loved that he never lost his sense of humour which he used to connect with people.

Dear Keri, Tom and Kathleen,
I hope your memories of your Dad when he was healthy help you through your sadness at this time. Our families had some really good times together. Some of my best memories were playing cards with your Dad and Debbie out at your home in Stittsville ( you were too young to remember that), stopping in for visits in Wakefield on our way to or from the cottage, and of course Casawinati. The happy place for all McNulty’s. Rest in peace Tom.
