Obituary For Cecil Edward Pizzey
Cecil Pizzey, resident of Grande Prairie, AB, passed away peacefully in his sleep after a long struggle of medical complications, on Monday, March 20, 2023, in his home, at the age of 65 years.
He was born on June 9, 1957, in Williams Lake, BC, to Richard and Elsie Pizzey (nee Lockwood). In 1980, he married Bernadette Blumhegen, together they raised their daughter Amanda and son Daniel.
Cecil began his working career as a logger then later had a road grading company based in the hamlet of Valhalla, AB. Cecil was an avid drag racer before 2011 when he was disabled due to cancer complications.
He appeared in several newspaper articles advocating for the disabled. He received multiple Certificates of Appreciation for Chair-Leaders Enabling Access from Spinal Cord Injury Alberta [formerly Canadian Paraplegic Association]; and SCI Alberta regional volunteer award in 2015. In 2016, he got a Tim Hortons Award in recognition of valuable volunteerism for Spinal Cord Injury Alberta. In 2017, Cecil received the Marlin Styner Award for Outstanding Achievement from the Alberta Premier’s Council on the Status of Persons with Disabilities, as well as recognition from the Rolling Bowlers Team and the Bowling Stones 10 Pin Mixed Adult League.

Cecil was an active member of the People’s Church in Grande Prairie.
We will miss him more than words can express and are comforted knowing he is with his Lord and at peace.
