Stuart Dickey Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Summers Funeral Home - Ustick Chapel - Meridian on Jan. 2, 2026.
Stuart Grant Dickey, 85, passed away peacefully on December 23, 2025, surrounded by his loving family. A devoted member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Stuart served faithfully in many teaching roles and shared his gift of music by singing at many church gatherings. His deep love for the gospel and his talent for uplifting others was evident in all he did.

Stuart proudly served his country for over two decades as a member of The United States Army, later continuing his service at the VA Hospital as a ward clerk. His life was marked by compassion, dedication, and a genuine desire to help others.

Above all, Stuart was a loving husband, father, and grandfather. His kindness and humor left an impression on everyone he met. Blessed with quick wit and a playful spirit, Stuart loved telling jokes and bringing joy and laughter wherever he went.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Emelie; children Tammy (Chris) Kiyoshi, Kevin (Stephanie) Dickey, Daniel Dickey, and Kristina (Marlin) Gochnour; sister Coleen (Steve) Clausen; 13 grandchildren; and 12 great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his parents, brother, two sisters, and a cherished granddaughter.

Stuart's legacy of faith, love, and laughter will live on in the hearts of all who knew him.

Friends and family are warmly invited to gather in remembrance of Stuart. Visitation will be held on Friday, January 9, 2026, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at Summers Funeral Home, 3629 E Ustick Rd, Meridian, ID 83646.

I worked with Stu at the VA for years. I enjoy his professionalism, respect and humor. He was a great guy. Rest in Stu

Thank you for being a father-in-law who goes beyond expectations. Your guidance, humor, and love are treasures I'll forever appreciate and admire.
I'm not your son, you're not my father
We're just two grown men saying goodbye
No need to forgive, no need to forget
I know your mistakes and you know mine
And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud
So, daddy, won't you just close your eyes?
Don't be afraid, it's my turn
To chase the monsters away
