Linda Gwennyth Kabush Dickinson October 25, 1950 - Janiuary 9, 2017 Linda enriched the lives of so many, making our world a much better place. She is deeply missed by her husband Mike Dickinson, step-daughters Danielle and Nicole Dickinson (Josh Tustin), grand-daughter Hope Ford, her brother Dan Kabush, nephew Ryan Lefurgey, many cousins, aunts and uncles, friends and colleagues. Linda graduated from UBC with a Master of Library Science degree, sharing her talents as a children's librarian, eventually becoming Deputy Director of the Fraser Valley Regional Library. We are deeply saddened by Linda's passing but are blessed by her love of life, family, friends. Linda's celebration of life will be held on Saturday, January 28/17 2:00 p.m. at the Anglican Church of the Epiphany, 10553 - 148 Street, Surrey BC. The family thanks the doctors and staff of Langley and Surrey Memorial Hospitals for helping Linda.
