Mickey is still talked about at family get togethers. He had such a sweet sweet spirit. He was always giving in what he knew about the Golf Game that he played for many years. Continue to RIP. I will see you after Awhile. Cuz

Coach Dillard a man that I will always remember. He was my very first basketball coach at Parkway, about 35yrs ago. A man that cared for his players and treated us like his own children. We all respected and honor him as our coach. I thank him for making me the player I used to be.

Coach Dillard was my very first basketball coach at Parkway Middle School. All the kids respected him, because he loved us. He poured his heart and soul into the children that he coached. I'm proud to have known you Coach Dillard. Thanks for being a part of my life.

I worked with Mickey at Parkway for a number of years. He was a great friend and mentor. He made me a better teacher, a better coach, and a better person.My most sincere condolences to the Dillard family. By the way did he still carry that golf club with the eight ball? John Farley

When my Uncle Mickey would come visit the family in Lynn Haven Florida, he always enjoyed himself, but for a very long time he never had anyone to play golf with. So while I was in college I took a golf class just in order for my uncle to have someone to play golf with. That made him so happy and it also lit a fire under my dad that he picked back up the sport. For years Uncle Mickey, my dad and I would always go play a few rounds of golf while he was on one of his many visits to Lynn Haven. My uncle taught me everything I know about golf. He was a very close friend to me always forever and a day. I know that he and my daddy are up in heaven playing all the rounds of golf they please. I pray that God will continue to richly bless my Aunt Jo always. I will always love u "Unc"!!

Mickey was my cousin. Our mother brought Mickey home to us about 35 years ago. He helped my brothers and nephew with our golf game and we spent much quality time together. Mickey was always present for family reunions, funerals, weddings and just to share some food and good conversations. Mickey and Jo were so kind to me when I moved to South Florida. I ate many meals at there home and shared a good time. I will miss his wonderful spirit. The Campbell family will miss Mickey Dillard.

To the Dillard family, what a blessing "coach" or "dad " as I emphatically called him was. He was humble, devoted and loved his family, he will surely be missed. my thoughts and prayers are with you all.

I will be for ever grateful for Mr. Dillard for what he helped me through when I was in high school. He was a very nice man, and very considerate. He will be missed very much by all who knew him. He will be deeply missed, but never forgotten.

I am so glad my brother introduced Mr. Dillard to all of my brothers and me. We all looked forward to visiting with him or playing a round of golf with him every May when we come down to visit Dennis. He will be missed very much.

For years my Godmother would say, "Mickey will be here this week." I could hardly wait. I not only learned a lot about golf but about life and how to treat people. One day I may no longer play golf, but I will always know that Mickey will be here this week and forever in my heart. I love you Mickey and I will truly miss you. Thanks Josephine for sharing him with me and my family.
