Obit: From the Bible Moniter of 1936:
Lloyd Ray Dickey, son of Bro. and Sister Howard R. Dickey, was born on July 8, 1918, in Miami county, Ohio, and passed away at the home of his parents in Browning township on Saturday, February 8, at 5:30 a. m. Lloyd's childhood was spent in Ohio, where he received the major portion of his elementary schooling. In February of 1932, he came with his parents, brothers and sisters to Illinois where the family has since made their home in and around Astoria. Lloyd continued his education in the Astoria and Hickory schools. He entered Browning high school in September of 1934 and was a member of the Sophomore class at the time of his death.
Until the present winter season, Lloyd had enjoyed good health and has had only a few minor illnesses. On Sunday, January 26th, he contracted pneumonia and was confined to his bed where he remained for one week and five days. During this time his condition had improved and recovery was more than probable. However, early on Saturday morning, Lloyd complained of difficulty in his breathing, and death, due to a blood clot which formed on the heart, followed almost immediately.
At this, the time of their son's death and burial, both Bro. and Sister Dickey are confined to their beds with pneumonia and wish to express their gratitude to the friends and neighbors who have been so helpful and kind.
Besides his parents, Lloyd leaves to mourn his passing five brothers and sisters: Lowell, Gladys, Freda, Ralph and Ruth; one brother having preceded him in death. His passing is also mourned by many other relatives, members of the father's and mother's immediate families, residing in the states of Ohio and Michigan, respectively.
Lloyd's passing is further mourned by a host of friends and school associates. A sunny disposition, an eager willingness of cooperation with his colleagues in any group activity, a wide range of information of current topics, and a wholesome vitality of life marked him as one whose passing will leave a void in the hearts of his host of friends and school associates.
