Frank Dickson passed away peacefully on March 11, 2025, after a long battle with cancer, surrounded by his loved ones. Born on January 7, 1946, he was predeceased by his parents, James and Thelma Dickson, his beloved wife, Theresa (nee Malinski), and six siblings. He was also preceded in death by his sons, Anthony “Woody” and Frankie.
Frank was the cherished brother of Richard “Dicky” and a devoted father to Kristina (Mike), Shawn (Dana), and Victor (Brenda). He was a loving father-in-law to Natalie and an adoring Pop-Pop to Chad and Aydin. Frank will also be deeply missed by his many nieces, nephews, extended family, and friends.
A true family man, Frank took great pride in bringing his loved ones together at every opportunity. He was widely known for his legendary backyard BBQs and pig roasts, always wearing his signature cowboy hat, boots, and oversized belt buckles. His sense of humor was unmatched, and he remained the ultimate jokester up until his very last breath.
Frank’s legacy of love, laughter, and family will live on in the hearts of those who knew him. He will be dearly missed but never forgotten.
