Andrew J. Dickinson

The family of Andrew Dickinson are heartbroken to announce his sudden passing on Friday April 14, 2023, in Montreal, Quebec. He will be lovingly remembered by his parents Grant and Barbara, siblings Pamela (Jim), Paul (Laurie), Emerson (Lisa) Melissa (John) and Joanna (Chris). He leaves behind many nieces and nephews and extended family. Andrew led a life that made him happy, never in one place for long, he travelled across Canada by train, meeting and living with people who became lifelong friends and second family. He will be remembered as a selfless friend who put others ahead of himself. Andrews bright eyes, generous
laugh and humor fill us with joy. Despite many obstacles and challenging circumstances, he displayed resilience that is unmatched. Recently, he spent several years in Nova Scotia, purchasing a home with Alana, a place that he loved and felt comfortable in. We would like to thank his friends along the way who cared for Andrew and loved him for who he was. A special thank you to Alana for adopting the loves of his life, his dogs Shelayleigh and Wagyu. Andrew taught us many lessons, including to love and accept each other for who we are. We will think of him as we love our own dogs and when we see the trains rolling along. A family celebration of life will take place at a later date.
