Ericka Gibbons Obituary
Ericka Lauren Bellamy Gibbons August 27, 1991- July 12, 2024
CHURCH HILL - Ericka Lauren Bellamy Gibbons, age 32 of Church Hill, entered into the arms of Jesus on Friday, July 12, 2024. Ericka was born on August 27, 1991, in Kingsport, TN. On May 22, 2024, Ericka married her most cherished friend, Chris Gibbons. Even though their marriage was short, the love that they shared together will last for an eternity.
Ericka lived life, and she lived it to the fullest. Her love for animals was a wonderful testimony to all who knew her. She enjoyed drawing, glass carving, and flower gardening. Ericka and Chris enjoyed riding motorcycles together and just living life together meant everything to them. Ericka treasured her little boy, Cortlin, and he was the joy of her life. Ericka's smile and glow would lighten up the darkest of rooms. In today's dark world, her smile and glow will be truly missed.
Ericka is survived by her devoted and loving husband, Chris Gibbons; parents, Tommy and Judith Earline Bellamy; son, Cortlin Blake Cutshaw; brother, Todd Bellamy; sister/aunt, Melissa Bellamy Rimer; her loving Border Collie, Riley; special friend, Josh Cutshaw; biological mother, Donna Wallen; special cousins, Dustin, Phillip, and Kobe; and many other loving family members.
The family requests that memorial contributions be made in Ericka's honor to the ASPCA, (800) 628-0028 https://www.aspca.org
There will be a private family memorial scheduled for a later date.
