He is preceded in death by his parents Martha and Arthur Hickey, sister Doris "Terri", nephew Thomas and his beloved dog "Artie". He is survived by his sisters; Betty and her husband Adam Storm of Island Pond, VT, and Mary Ann H. of Quincy, MA. He will be remembered dearly by his sisters, nieces, nephew, extended family and many close friends.
