a tribute to my late mom- artist Lillian Gulka

One year ago today my mom passed away suddenly following an art workshop we took together on gabriola island as pictured below
 

 

 
 
Her memoriam in today's  Thunder Bay newspaper reads:
 
 
Beloved wife, sister, mom, "chocha" "baba" and friend
 
                                      We remember her zest for life,
                                         her laughter, her smile,
                                            her warm embrace,
                                            her encouragement,
                                               her friendship
                                                and her love.

We are truly blessed to have had such a wonderful person touch our lives and our hearts

with much love Walter, Lianne, Leslie, Larissa, Carl, Will and Marko



my special art tribute to my mom is provided below

Lillian Gulka Art Tribute

We miss my mom terribly and this last week of painting on Saltspring Island brought back many great memories.  

Over this past year I am so grateful for everyone's support in helping us cope with our tremendous loss.   Thank you.

  1. Lianne, what a beautiful tribute to your mom – she was a creative, talented, lively, playful, strong, passionate person. ‘Mooma’ is so greatly missed.

    Your own art shows clearly that your mother’s talents have been passed along.
