Dickey, Douglas Harold Born on Oct. 31, 1959 in Mpls. Died on Oct. 27, 2006 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Preceded in death by father, Arthur Dickey, and maternal and paternal grandparents. Survived by mother, Shirley Barden; stepfather, Elliott Barden; brother, Robert (Kris) and William (Robin) Dickey; nieces, Dara, Kathryn, Jessica, and Susan; nephews, Robert W., William R., and Andrew; stepbrothers, Hatcher, Chris, and David Barden; longtime friend, Bonita Belgum; and special friend, Jeannine Fusco. A kind, generous, fun loving man. He had many interests including gourmet cooking. He was a food server at the Las Vegas Hilton for 15 years and served as a shop steward for the Culinary Union 226. He was a valued leader. Because he loved animals, in lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorials be given to the Humane Society. Special thanks to the staff at Nathan Adelson Hospice for their gentle care. Memorial services will be held Sunday, November 19, at 2 PM at the Cremation Society of Minnesota, 7110 France Ave. S., Edina, MN 55435. May the Lord bless and keep him.

Doug and I were in Kindergarten together at Cahill and he was my first crush on a boy. I remember years later at the 7th grade dance, Doug was the only one to ask me to dance. I remember that night and the song Little Surfer Boy that we danced to. He was always so nice to me back in those awkward shy years. Doug was also in the high school group in 1974 that went camping with Mr. Zellmer up by Split Rock Light House. I was always envy of his long blonde hair back in those high school...

I met Doug when we were in the 4th grade and I had just moved to Edina. We were in the same class and the teacher asked him to keep me from getting lost in that confusing school (Creek Valley). It didn't work - I still got lost! We shared some interests, and both our fathers were architects, so we had unique houses to explore, as well as the woods and the lake behind his house. Although we didn't remain close past the elementary school years, I still have fond memories of his friendship...
