Bulah Black

Ms. Bulah Black, age 78, of Cleveland, passed away Saturday, March 2, 2024, at her home comforted by her family.

Bulah was born April 6, 1945, to the late Frank and Annie “Belle” Dockery Brooks. Bulah was one of seven children: Furman, Robert, Albert, Nellie, Kenneth, and Wayne.

Bulah graduated from White County High School in 1963. After graduating high school, she got married and had three children. She was a homemaker and worked as a certified medical assistant. Bulah later became a beauty consultant with Mary Kay. She worked her way up to Sales Director and drove a Mary Kay car.

One of Bulah’s greatest attributes was her unconditional love for her family. She was happiest when all her family was together and would often say, “I love my babies.” She gave the best hugs and was always there to listen without judgement.
