Robert A. Dickinson

Robert Alexander Dickinson, 63, passed away peacefully on Thursday, September 1, 2016, at Capital Caring
Hospice Center in Arlington, VA.

The son of the late Alexander B. Dickinson and the late Helen D. Kuykendall, stepson of the late Jerome K.
Kuykendall, Bob was born on September 22, 1952. A lifelong resident of Arlington, VA, Bob attended Washington-Lee High School and George Mason University. He had a thirty year career in the U.S. Government working for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

Bob was an avid Washington Redskins fan, a classic car and hot rod enthusiast, and was most at peace and
ease when he could be on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean or the Chesapeake Bay.

More than anything, family meant the most to Bob. He is survived by his loving sister Donna D. Biegler and
her husband Antonius M. Biegler of Savannah, GA; stepsister Penny Engel and her husband Sam Sridhar Subramaniem of Washington, DC; stepsister Gretchen Jones of Silver Spring, MD. The role Bob relished more than any other was that of "Uncle Bob", and he is survived by beloved nieces Chelsea H. Biegler of Nashville, TN; Kendall A. Biegler of Savannah, GA; Monika B. Eyers of Mendham, NJ; and nephew Jonathan M. Biegler of New York City, NY.

A funeral is scheduled for Thursday, September 8, at Shorter Funeral Home, 1905 S. Main St. Farmville, VA,
23901, with visitation from 2:30-3:30 p.m. Burial will follow at College Presbyterian Church, 418 College Road
Hampden Sydney, VA, 23943.
