Dickie, Roderick Arthur – It is with great sadness and remembrance that we share the passing of Roderick Arthur Dickie, age 67, who died peacefully with his family by his side at sunrise on the morning of February 26, 2026.
Rod was born to the late Goldie (Eaton) and Lester Dickie, in Middle Musquodoboit. He is survived by his loving wife of 45 years, Pam (Withrow); their children, Ryan (Becca), Michael (Wendy), and Evan (Jacy); their grandchildren, Everett, Sylvie, Casen, Lennon, Scarlet, Ivy, and Goldie; sisters, Florence (Dick), Sandra (Eddie); sister-in-law, Sharron. He is also survived by many in-laws, nieces and nephews, and extended family whom he loved dearly. He was predeceased by his brother, Leslie.
Rod was extremely passionate about his business, volunteering, and helping in his community in any way possible. But most of all, his family was his world and number one priority. The love he and Pam shared was unmatched and unbreakable. He worked extremely hard to ensure that his boys had every opportunity to succeed, while instilling discipline, hard work, and strong life values in each of them.
He was the best Bumpa to his grandchildren…he will never be forgotten.
Cremation has taken place and a celebration of life will be held in the spring.
A special thank you for the compassionate care to Dr. Iain MacNeil and the staff at Colchester East Hants Health Centre Intensive Care Unit.
In Rod’s honour donations may be made to Caring and Sharing Angel Tree Food Bank in Enfield.
