Christensen, Jamie Lynn
July 17, 1956 – February 1, 2024
at the age of 67 years:
A local celebration of Jamie’s life will be held on Wednesday, July 17, 2024, from 1:30 – 4:00 at the Sicamous United Church (Thrift Store)
It is with great sadness that I announce the passing of Jamie Lynn Christensen. Loving partner to Chris, devoted mother to Stephanie and Leon (Stephanie), loving grandmother to Madison and Damian, beloved daughter of Cortland and Gail Christensen, sister of Dana, loyal friend to so many, dog-lover of Zoey and Hunter and entrepreneur with her business ‘Our Walk with Buddha’, Jamie will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
The angels in heaven are wearing beautiful malas and bracelets.
Jamie loved sports in her younger years, especially baseball. Lifelong friendships were forged early on: Debbie C, Debbie H, Linda, Lisa, Paddy, Shelley and Tracey and many others were always in touch. In her later years she enjoyed playing outdoors with her grandchildren, kayaking, puttering in her garden, walking the dogs with Chris and making new friends at her popular jewelry markets. Jamie was very proud to be able to continue working for the RCMP and the Commissionaires here in Sicamous.
There will be a Celebration of Life in mid-July, on her birthday, in Sicamous.
Thank you so much to the teams of nurses, doctors and physiotherapists at Shuswap Lake General Hospital who took such wonderful care of our dear friend.
In lieu of flowers, please send a donation to the BC Cancer Society.
Smith, Garlin Robert
June 7, 1986 – January 31, 2024
at the age of 38 years:
He was a son, brother, father and friend to many. The guy that would lend a hand, ear and hug to anyone in need.
Unfortunately, it was time to leave us.
He is now with his mother, Shelley, may she take him under her wing and guide him to peace.
The flood of sadness from all that have been able to know him as his true self, will be left without a piece of heart….for he was loved.
Moore, George Raymond “Ray”
July 30, 1934 – January 28, 2024
at the age of 89 years:
It is with profound sadness that the family of Ray Moore announces his peaceful passing on January 28, 2024, at the age of 89 years.
Ray was born on July 30, 1934, on the family farm near Carlyle, SK. Ray and Marie were married in Arcola, SK. in 1955.
Ray worked on the oil rigs for a few years and then went to trade school to become a heavy-duty mechanic. They moved to Vulcan, AB to work as a mechanic and then moved to Williams Lake, BC as a service manager. Eventually, they settled in Salmon Arm, BC as an owner/operator of his own logging truck.
Ray leaves behind his wife of 67 years, his daughter, his son and a brother. Ray had 6 grandchildren and 5 great-grandchildren.
Ray was loved deeply and will be greatly missed.
At Ray Moore’s request, no service will be held.

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!
