I knew Lola thru the NMCA. She was an inspiration had a wonderful humor at the Annual Boston Chapter Workshops! I know she was fun to be with and a wonderful wife, mother, sister, and Grandmother. An incredible, unfettered legal mind! She left us many sweet memories.

Lola was such an important part of our NCMA heritage. She always challenged us to do the right thing for the contracting profession.

I'm sorry to hear of her passing. My sympathy to her beloved family.

I have such fond memories of Lola as a mentor, lawyer, friend, colleague, and role model. Her knowledge of government contracting - and of life - was awe-inspiring.
When we were first married, Lola and Kenny shared their wisdom for a happy marriage - "Show goodwill toward each other". The best advice ever given!

Our sympathies to Kenny and Leon.

There will never be enough words to describe how much Lola meant to the government contracting profession. Her widom, energy, and willingness to guide us though the profession is unmatched by anyone I have ever met. My sincere sympathy to Leon all of Lola's family.

Lola Dickerman knew every word in the dictionary but words cannot express the sorrow of losing the Glazerman matriarch.

Lola was always a mentor to me, a great teacher always willing to take a moment to teach on any topic. A real professional who loved everything about Government contracting and was willing to share all that she knew. She'll be missed by all of us, especially her NCMA family and friends.

My deepest sympathy to the family. Love always.

I knew Lola Dickerman from the Harvard Institute of Learning in Retirement where she had been attending study groups for the last 18 years. What a spunky lady with a keen sharp mind, which she used well!
Commuting to Cambridge from Quincy, she took courses in a variety of subjects from Greek Drama to "Is God a Mathematician?". Never afraid to question authority, she was a great lady. I am sorry I wasn't able to spend more time with her.

I loved this woman. To me she was a great: professional, teacher, thinker, speaker, mentor and friend. Did I mention I loved her?
