To this day, Tim is remembered as one of my great circle of friends I made in Redding, during my growing-up years in the 1970s. What a talented guy, who knew the standard tunes our parents grew up dancing to. I enjoyed many musical times with Tim in our little jazz sextet, and later on in a funk band. Also, Tim was loads of fun to go water skiing with at Shasta Lake. The man may be gone, but the memories of Tim are for a lifetime. RIP Tim Dicker.

I befriended Tim at Berklee College. Did a lot of jamming with him at his apartment at 110 Hemingway St. in Boston.
He inspired me & my music every time I think of him behind his white baby grand piano. Priceless college adventures !

My condolences to the family of Tim Dicker, and I am very sorry to hear of his passing. Tim was a boyhood friend when we lived in Redding, and we had some wonderful times back in those days. We used to go water skiing at Shasta Lake, and he played piano and organ in musical groups with me. What a great talent he was, and he worked well naturally with all of us. I will never forget Tim, and we all benefited from him being in our lives. Farewell to one great guy.

Music, when soft voices die
Music, when soft voices die,
Vibrates in the memory
Odours, when sweet violets sicken,
Live within the sense they quicken.
Rose leaves, when the rose is dead,
Are heaped for the beloved's bed;
And so thy thoughts, when thou art gone,
Love itself shall slumber on.

Timmy,
We had a lot of fun together as Redding's Rat Pack. Our Redding Rotary Club was the best and the nightlife you helped create was a blast. You dug in your heels and worked hard to make it all work forward. Thanks for all the joy you brought into my life. I will miss your bright smirking smile, depreciating humor and your wicked wit. Please pass this man through to the next big thing!
Cheers

You will always be remembered in my heart. I always looked forward to the reunions at Uncle Nels' or at Bidwell Park. The best week was with you and Dana with Sheila in Redding. Rest with the Lord, cousin. I will miss you. - Rick
