Cecilia (Cissy) Gullickson of Logan Lake passed away on February 24, 2014 at 50 years of age. She will be lovingly remembered by her four children – Wes (Dana) Kellough of Calgary, Aleisha (Kyle) Goodman of Logan Lake, Meagan Gullickson of Kamloops and Courtney (Doug) Gullickson of Rimby. Gramma will be in the hearts of her grandchildren Kale, Keiton and Ailah Goodman, and Lilly Gibson. Cissy is survived by her sister Wendy (Blaine) Frisk as well as her niece and many nephews and many caring friends. Cissy was predeceased by her husband Randy Gullickson, her sister Oline Arnason, and parents Art and Ruby Larson.
Mom had a beautiful soul, born in WinnipegManitoba. In 1964the family relocated to Field and Golden, British Columbia. In 1967, The Larsons found home at MammettLake. Growing up in the heart of the HighlandValley, Cissy with her sisters attended school in Merritt, BC. Moving to Hudson’s Hope around 1983, she began a lifelong love of cooking and serving, meeting her husband Randy along the way, and finally finding her way back to LoganLake in 1991 to raise her 4 children. Although mom loved to work, she loved her family time even more, hot summer days were spent around the pool, and cool fall nights with a wiener roast on the menu, mom couldn’t be happier. Mom also loved our family dinners filled with laughter and games, and especially the ice cream dessert to follow. She will be very missed by all her family and friends. The family would like to thank Dr. Gabriel and the cancer ward, Dr. Stinson and the nursing staff at RoyalInlandHospital for their extraordinary care and compassion for our mom.
The Memorial Service will be celebrated at 10:00 am on Sunday March 2, 2014 at the Kamloops Funeral Home with Mary Widmer officiating. In lieu of flowers, should friends so wish, donations to the Canadian Cancer Society, Unit 111, 450 Lansdowne Street, Kamloops, B.C. V2C 1Y3 would be appreciated in memory of Cissy.
