Brandy Dickerson Obituary

Dickerson, Brandy Lare
nee Kimberly Ann Maldonado, 46, of Corpus Christi, Tx passed away on December 4, 2010. A beautiful wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, potter, writer, artist and friend flew from the earth on December 4, 2010 after a long fight with Leukemia. Born and raised in Phoenix on October 13, 1964, she lived many places during her 46 years but her favorite will always be an old farmhouse in Oklahoma outside of Manchester. Brandy enjoyed feeding those she loved good food and giving books to anyone who would take them, liked wearing capes and didn't use an umbrella because she preferred to feel the rain on her face. The family would like to express their sincere gratitude to her bone marrow donor. Please consider honoring Brandy by joining the donor registry at www.bethematch.org. She is survived by her husband Les, her children, whom she was so very proud of her son Joshua Dickerson and his wife Amber, her daughter April Marie Dickerson Lopez and husband Michael, and her much loved grand daughter Emily Marie Lopez, parents, Gaye Tolman (Jim) and Alex Maldonado (Heidi), siblings, Greg Douthit (Jennifer), Cary Maldonado and Kevin Maldonado (Heather) and many neices and nephews. A celebration of Brandy's life will be held at the Valley Garden Center, 1809 N. 15th Avenue, Phoenix, AZ, Saturday, January 8th at 3 p.m.

"Goodbye," said the fox. "And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the
heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye."
"What is essential is invisible to the eye," the little prince repeated, so that he would be
sure to remember.
Until we meet again my friend. I'll see you in the stars. Love, Lydia
