We are so sorry to learn of Dickie's passing. I remember her cheerful laughter when she got together with her sisters. Like most families when they get together, fun times and laughter were always part of the gathering. May God be with you and grant you peace and comfort during this time. God bless you. R.I.P. Dickie
