KILLICK, WILLIAM HENRY: January 16, 1927 - April 11, 2013 Harry Killick was born in Middlesbrough, England. He and his parents and sister emigrated to Canada after WWII. Harry started his photography career in Penticton before opening his own studio in Summerland and winning honorable mention in a Brussels photo show. He went on to become the Handy Dart driver in Summerland for some years. Motorcycling played a large part in his life, starting riding as a young man in England and into his late 70's. His greatest gift, though, was music. Through the early years in the Summerland town band, various dance bands, and performing up until the end as timpanist with the Penticton Concert Band and singing with the Tune Agers. He is survived by his wife of 57 years, Velma; his sister Margaret (Peter); children Joyce, Bill (Debbie) and Pete (Lynn); grandchildren Ryan, Christine (Cam), and Katie; and great grandson Jordan.
