In Loving Memory
Brian Thomas Goldie
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Brian Thomas Goldie of Kamloops on May 20th, 2024, at 69 years of age.
He is survived by his loving wife Iona just short of 48 years, children Nicole (Chris) of Kelowna, BC, Jennifer (Andrew) of Kamloops, grandchildren Grey and Olivia, brothers and sister; Ron of Lethbridge, AB, Maureen (George) of Yuma Arizona, Randy (Deb) of Calgary, AB and Brett of Medicine Hat, AB as well as numerous Aunts, Uncles, Nieces and Nephews.
Brian is predeceased by his dad Tom Goldie in May of 1985 and his mom Barbara Lowther in December of 2014. Brian worked in the construction industry for most of his working years. He did find a passion later in his career for concrete. He loved playing in the dirt, mixing up the perfect recipe for his clients. His clients were always impressed with the knowledge he had toward concrete and his ability to create different designs for many projects.
He was diagnosed in March of 2023 with cancer. He stayed positive throughout the treatment hoping for a full recovery. He endured many surgeries never complaining and tried to keep a smile on his face and a positive attitude. The terminal diagnosis came in early March of 2024. His battle with cancer was short and hard fought. He passed away at home with his loving family at his side. He will be dearly missed by his wife, family and his many friends and co-workers.
A Celebration of Life will be held for Brian on August 15, 2024 (His 70th birthday) from 2-4 pm at the West Highlands Community Center 1185 Links Way, Kamloops, BC.
In lieu of flowers memorial donations are graciously accepted in Brians name to the Cancer Society.

So sad to hear of Brian’s passing. I worked on many projects that Brian was involved with. He was a hardworking honest man and he will be missed. Especially will miss having a cold one with him as he was always good company. As he would he never spoke of being sick, just the kind of guy he was!

Iona my condolences to you and your family. I had the pleasure of working with Brian when he was working in the soil business. He was extremely knowledgeable describing soil conditions and what needed to be done to soil base before building foundation footings. Always good conversations that will always be remembered.
Brian was my cousin, Bard (his mother) was my fathers (Ken) sister. I saw Brian last at Evlyns funeral in 2019, Brian was there and always outgoing. he made the trip from kamloops and it was nice to see him.
Nonie, Ann told me about Brian when I saw her at the theatre last Sunday
Brian was a great fellow
