With great sadness we announce the passing of Goldy Luceal (nee Anderson) Millman of Strathmore, Alberta on Sunday February 2, 2025, at the age of 95. Mom married the love of her life Earl Edgar Millman on August 28, 1948, and together they were inseparable. Being married for 75 years they passed away within months of each other.

Mom was born in Vancouver, B.C. on July 28, 1929, to Oscar and Bertha Anderson (nee Finley) She was the youngest of 7 children and is predeceased by 4 brothers, Cecil, Melbourne, Chester and Kermit and 2 sisters, Bernice and Grace. She was also predeceased by her eldest son Barry Millman and son- in-law Fred Harms.

She was the loving mother of 4, grandmother to 9 and great grandmother of 13.  She is survived by her eldest daughter Gay Harms (Fred), granddaughter Charlene Allen (Shawn), great-grandchildren Mathen and Bryn, grandson Shane Harms (Deanna), great-grandchildren Zachary, Ethan and Mikayla; daughter-in-law, Betty Millman (Barry), Tiffany  Hansen (Jeremy) great-grandchildren Elisabeth and Vanessa, grandson Ben; son, Dennis Millman (Carrie), grandchildren Robyn, Isaiah (Meaghan), great-grandchildren Sam, Mya and Eli, granddaughter Amanda Neeson and great-grandchildren Toryn and Ballymena;  daughter Sharon Millman, granddaughters Jennifer Cisna (Jason), and Sarah Tetlock and great-grandson Isaiah.

Mom and Dad resided in Calgary for most of their married life. While raising their 4 children, Mom worked at various jobs, notably the #1 Co-op and the Hudson’s Bay downtown. After a move to Kelowna in 1982, Mom enjoyed her position at Marks and Spencers, or “Marks and Sparks” as she affectionately called it.

When in Kelowna Mom and Dad were able to retire and spend many years travelling south for the winter, calling Arizona and Nevada home.

Mom had various hobbies, sewing and beadwork to name a few, and she always loved a good deal. Many Saturdays were spent at garage sales and thrift stores.

After 38 years in Kelowna, Mom and Dad decided to reside in Strathmore to be closer to their family. We are so thankful for the time we were able to create new memories with them here.

A Funeral service will be held on Saturday, February 15, 2025, at the Lord of All Lutheran Church (Strathmore), at 2:00 p.m. with a luncheon to follow.

A special and sincere thank you to the wonderful staff at AgeCare Sagewood for their compassion and care to both Mom and Dad while they resided there.
