Stephen DICKERSON Obituary

Hi family, i worked with Stephen when he was with Softprint working for Bruce. Though i didn't know him well, he was a friendly and happy go lucky kid who we was very well liked. I Just wanted you to know that even though 4 years have passed, we still feel the loss and share your pain with you. Aroha nui.

Thoughts are with you always Vic ....he is still such a treasure

Dear Steve,

You were one of my all-time favourite people. You lit up every room you walked into.

I thought you'd always be in our lives, with you and Aisha growing into old surf dogs and having joint 40ths, 50ths, 60ths and beyond together.

I'm sorry beyond words that's not going to happen, but at the same time I'm so grateful for the part of our lives we all got to share together.

One of my favourite memories is our trip to King Island, when one night me, Aisha, you and Sel all took turns covering rap songs. You chose "Gangsta's Paradise" and acted out the lyrics. When you got to the bit "with money on my mind" you put your forehead to your knee, because it turned out you'd always thought it was "with my knee on my mind". Sel and I laughed so hard we couldn't breathe.

Thank you for all the amazing memories. We'll miss you forever.

From Gin (or Virgil as you liked to tease me)

So sad to see this news. I worked with Stephen in Melbourne and as a fellow kiwi (who was on struggle street at that time), he was always super friendly and lovely. What a huge hole he will leave in the lives of his family and loved ones.

To a gentleman that was one of Our Team.
Stephen, you will always be that beautiful man with the gorgeous smile and a heart that was filled with fun and a person that could make friends with anyone to us.
We had such a great time together, and the photos that we have all looked back on shows the wonderful memories that were created.
You leave us with a sadness that is not understood, but one that has made us reflect on the good times and to remind us to say thank you for touching each of our lives.
Stephen our love is with you and your family.

What absolutely sad news, thanks for all the laughs Dicko. You brought a special vibe to the place. You will be missed my man.
Condolences to the Dickerson family, friends and past colleagues. My thoughts are with you all at this time.
I hope you have found the perfect break out there in heavens waters mate. See you on the next wave brother.

Rest in Peace. You made everyone's life a little bit more colourful. From bringing home crazy South African's, to surf trips, to concerts and Muriwai parties. Thinking of the Dickerson family and friends at this time xxxx

Stephen, Thank you so much for playing such an important part in Aisha's upbringing and being a truly wonderful friend.
Your amazing ability to instantly bond with people and your sincerity and politeness towards Ray and myself
made you very special. We feel very privileged to have been part of your life. We shall miss you beyond words.

I was very shocked and saddened to hear about Stephen. My thoughts are with the whole family - I can only imagine how devastated you all are.

Absolutely gutting to hear the news. Sven - you were a real influence on me throughout my early twenties, and I appreciate the good times we spent together. Thinking of you and the family at this time.

My deepest sympathies to the family, I thoroughly enjoyed working with Stephen, he was a polite, intelligent and kind person. I still cook the dishes that he prepared as part of our lunch club. This is a big loss to the world he was definitely someone who added light to the world. This is very sad news and all the best to the family during this difficult time.

My thoughts are with all those coming to terms with Stephen's passing, especially his family. An absolutely great guy, that is for sure, and will be missed.

Dicko, such a wonderful, lovely person everyone will absolutely miss. I was lucky to work along side you twice, at NEXTDC and during your time at Fruition partners, a DXC practice. You brought a little silliness and those exceptionally healthy meals into the office culture. Very tragic and sad to hear this news. On behalf of The DXC family we send love and support to your family and friends affected by your sad and sudden passing. Xxx

Tragic loss... I enjoyed working with Stephen at Fruition for a year. Fantastic guy, my condolences to his family.

I was completely shocked to hear about this. I think as everyone has / will say, you were a genuinely nice guy and I know we will miss you.

On behalf of the Mimecast team we offer our deepest sympathies to Stephen's family. Thinking of you during this difficult time and will have fond memories of Stephen always.

A genuine great guy. Will be sorely missed by all who knew him.

Dicko, you were the best work colleague and a friend. You had such a contagious laugh and it always made the whole office and I laugh. You were my t's goin' on buddy buddy and my once who wore it better twin. Haha! You will be missed! Rest In Peace Dicko!

Marvin, Larry and I will miss you Stephen Mark Dickerson so much. We love and care about you and that will never change. I will never forget all of the great times we had together. You were my rock. I love you.

Stephen mate, I like so many others will miss you immensely. You had such a gentle heart but also an amazing knack at being the life of the party. I have and always will look up to you. You are my big brother that showed me so many things in life.
I will treasure the good memories with you for the rest of my life.
Rest easy bro. I love you so much.
