Kari Bulice Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by A Natural State Funeral Service & Crematory on Mar. 10, 2026.
Kari Lynn (McCaa) Bulice, age 44, of Cabot, Arkansas passed away on Thursday, March 5, 2026 following a nine-month battle with brain cancer. Kari was born on January 9, 1982 in Little Rock, Arkansas to Douglass McCaa and the late Janet McCaa. Kari was a wife, mother, daughter, sister, aunt, cousin, and friend to so many.

Kari loved her family fiercely and devoted her life to them, finding her greatest joy in the time she spent with those she loved most. Kind, giving, and deeply compassionate, she had a natural warmth that touched everyone around her. Her children were the center of her world, and she adored every moment spent with them. She had a deep appreciation for the beauty in the world and found happiness in life's simple pleasures-reading a good book, watching movies and shows together with her family, and creating quiet, meaningful moments with the people she cherished most. She faced her battle with cancer with remarkable strength and courage, meeting each day with determination and grace. Her resilience and unwavering spirit inspired everyone around her. She was a hero to so many who witnessed her bravery and love over the years battling her health complications. Her love, generosity, and gentle spirit will be remembered always.

Kari was preceded in death by her mother, Janet McCaa. Survivors include her husband of 25 years, Chris Bulice; children, Bradley Bulice and Emily Bulice; father, Douglass McCaa; brothers, Ryan McCaa and Chris McCaa, and a host of nieces, nephews, and other extended family and friends.
