Goodrick, Marilyn Louise
September 21, 1943 – August 9, 2025
at the age of 81 years:
A Celebration of Life for Marilyn will be held at 3 pm, Saturday, August 23 at 2827 Hilltop Rd., Sorrento, BC.
Marilyn Louise Goodrick (Scott), The adored Great grandmother, beloved mother and cherished wife of T.W Goodrick. Daughter of John & Dorothy Scott passed away peacefully on the morning of August 9th, 2025 in Salmon Arm.
A resident of Blind Bay though had lived throughout Canada and had touched the hearts of anyone she met. She will forever be remembered for knowing someone wherever she went. Her sharp wit and elegance made her memorable but it was her memory of others that was so deep and sincere.
Born in 1943 Vancouver was her first home, she began working in her fathers Garage at a young age and it didn’t take long before the stories of a young girl doing the work of gruff men began to circulate. To the point she had to be driven some say escorted by the local police to the accident scenes to run her fathers wrecker. As she grew so did the efforts of the family and she would ultimately marry the man she met in her fathers bowling alley. A tall, dark and handsome man walked into the alley one evening and right behind him was Terry, a navy man.
I believe it was their third date when Terry’s car got the flat tire. Marilyn brought him back to her father’s shop and repaired the car. Her skill set in an era of masculine men and feminine women had caused him to get a good ribbing from the fellas and he slipped out the door into the street. Marilyn driving his car followed and once she found him, she never let go. Married Aug. 2nd 1963 they shared just over 62 years of marriage, had two children, that had five children of their own gifting another five great grandchildren.
They built businesses, homes and what is nothing short of a legacy together. Her name carried on by a little blond girl that runs a wrecker, far too young in her father and grandfathers shop. A testament to her influence. Every yellow rose a reminder of her sorority sisters, Beta Sigma Phi since 1971.
From her volunteer work in the local ice rinks to her careers with Woodward’s, Royal Trust and The Royal Bank of Canada she was always the one person people were willing to wait in line for. She will be missed but over and above will be celebrated by Terry, her sister Barb and husband Ron Baines. Her son Lorrie and wife Michelle Goodrick, her daughter Tracey and husband Chuck Mckinney, her grandchildren and their spouses Kaetlynn Mckinney, Kira & Jason Lutterman, Kora & Dustin Holt, Kayle Goodrick, Josh & Jennifer Mckinney. Her great grandchildren Logan, Connor, Willow, Lane & Marlowe.
We are gathering in her honour at the place she wanted on Aug. 23rd at 3pm. We would like to thank the incredible staff at the Salmon Arm Hospital for their care & support. Fischers funeral Home for their guidance in sombre times. And please in lieu of flowers a donation to the Heart & Stroke Foundation would be wonderful. Bring your fond memories, stories and self.

Recently, my mom passed away suddenly in Palm Springs, California. My dad was devastated with grief, but he had some amazing friends nearby who helped him thru the process.
In order to start that process, they needed the name of a funeral service in Salmon Arm that the people in the states could be in contact with about the handling of the remains. One of the friends recommended Fischer's Funeral Services, so they were called and They were amazing..they handled all the paperwork and kept in close contact with both the funeral homes and the people dealing with certificates and such. They will also help the spouse with some paperwork regarding taxes if necessary.
When my father and I went to see them regarding my mother's wishes, they were so accommodating and did not hesitate to do everything they could to make this as pleasant as they possibly could. We even changed our minds a few times about things at the last minute, and they made it all happen just the way we wanted.
My mother didn't have the usual service and it was the best choice we could have made for her and Fischer's did everything to make the day absolutely beautiful from the room setup to the layout of the flowers and urn. They also supplied all the little stuff that you don't even think about in a time like that( paper plates, cutlery, coffee, tea, etc...) and it took a giant load off of my mind so I could concentrate on making this the best send off I could for my mom and for that, I will be forever grateful.
I am quite bad to judge how much food and such to get for events , we had way, way too much leftover, but I felt happy about it because I knew it wouldn't go to waste. It gets donated to the local Women's shelter and so I feel that even though my mom is gone, she is still giving to others, and that is the best feeling.
I was amazed at the cost of the service. I have heard horror stories about the thousands and thousands of dollars it can cost and I was concerned because of the situation in dealing with the US that the cost would be one of those stories, but that was the most reasonable cost I have ever seen, and a house will not have to be mortgaged to pay for it ... 😊
A BIG shout out to Fischer's for all you did for me and my father and may the Heavens bless you both!
