Obituary for Hazel Dickson
I Did It My Way
“I lived a life that was full
Traveled each and every highway
and more, much more
I did it, I did it My Way”
Our cherished mother and granny, Margaret “Hazel” Dickson passed away peacefully surrounded by her family on March 1st 2023. Beloved wife of Ken Dickson, much loved mother of Ashlee-Sara (Robert) and adored granny of Nicholas and Adam – as well as loved and admired by her many family and friends in Canada and back home in Northern Ireland Hazel was predeceased by her beloved husband, Ken on August 16th 2021, and is survived by daughter Ashlee-Sara (Robert), grandson’s Nicholas and Adam, brother George (Isabelle), sister Joan, and many nieces and nephews in N. Ireland. As a mother, granny, sister and auntie, Hazel was best known for her sense of fairness, kindness, strength, but most of all, her love. Her passing leaves a huge void in our lives but she has left us with a lifetime of happy memories from her travels to Italy, China, Rarotonga and of course Hawaii where she and Ken enjoyed their time
in the sun. A career in the retail industry was also a large part of her life from 1967 to her retirement in 1992. By the time she retired she had reached a position of Regional District Manager for Reitmans. Hazel’s wishes are to be laid to rest at St. Colman’s in Dunmurry, County Antrim alongside her beloved husband, Ken and extended family. A service will be held at St. Colman’s in Dunmurry on April 12th. The family wishes to thank the many nurses and care support professionals, who were so compassionate and loving and assisted with her care at the family home. Lastly, as Hazel would remind everyone, “life is short so live, live, live!
