Elease (Almond) Hulin

On Sunday afternoon, October 19, 2025, the Lord walked around his garden and saw an empty space. He then descended his Angels from the heavens to Pruitt Health - Grandview in Athens, Georgia and came upon a faithful face. They then put their arms around Ms. Elease (Almond) Hulin and lifted her soul to eternal rest. God's garden must be beautiful, because he always picks his best.

Elease Almond Hulin, age 75, of Elberton, Georgia was born on November 4, 1949, the daughter of the late John Louis Calhoun, Sr. and the late Julia Mae Almond. On October 19, 2025, she entered her eternal resting place peacefully leaving behind a legacy of love, wisdom and high sense of elegance.

After the passing of her mother at an early age Elease and her sister the late Julia Christine Almond were reared by Will Almond and later in life Elease was reared in the home of Lester and Essie Mae (Allen) Hamm. Elease was a woman of quiet strength, deep intelligence, and unwavering determination.

Elease was educated in the Elbert County School System, thus leading her to Blackwell Memorial High School and in the year of 1967, she made history as the second African American to graduate from Elbert County High School during the era of segregation – a milestone that reflected her courage, perseverance, and commitment to education.

Elease dedicated many years of her life to caring for others through her work as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). Her compassion and professionalism touched countless lives, and her gentle spirit brought comfort to those in her care.

She will be lovingly remembered by her children – George Hulin, Jr. (Merry Hulin) of Winterville, GA (“grandchildren” Reginald Mattox, Christopher Gantt, Austin Hulin, and Issac Hulin). Juana Hulin of Athens, GA, (“grandchildren” Asia Maxwell, Victoria Maxwell, and Jaleah Maxwell).

She also left behind fifteen (15) great grandchildren who loved her dearly as well as a host of nieces, and nephews. Her memory will continue to live on in their hearts, as well as in the hearts of all who were blessed to know her.

Elease Almond Hulin will forever be remembered for her intelligence, resilience, and the legacy of love and strength she leaves behind.
