Thank you Linda for letting us know about the death of yet another classmate. It was sad to read about Cecey Dickson passing in 2002. I remember that we missed her at the 50th reunion and we asked everyone who we thought hung out with her if they knew anything about her. Mimi Hoting and she were inseparable at BPHS so Diane Pinnick and I went to the center of the room where we all had dinner and where Mimi was talking to people. More and more people kept coming up talking to Mimi and us, so we never got a chance to talk to Mimi.
We thought it strange that Cecey was not there because she was so involved with everything at BPHS--the band and student government, etc., so we didn't think that she was one who had a really bad time in HS and never wanted to see anyone from there again. Several people we know felt like that, and it is really sad because all our classmates have really precious memories for us.
Cecey was so smart and so was her brother, Craig. Craig was in our advanced Algebra class and we all shared our homework answers to see if everyone got the same answers before class started. We all helped each other learn and get past the really tough homework.
Sorry to see that you passed so young, Cecey, but rest in peace. Mary Ann McNeill Michalsky
