After five years of battling cancer, my beautiful sister Toni Dickinson went to be with the Lord on Tuesday, March 29th, 2022.  She was one of the most kind, compassionate and loving people I've ever known.  She was so full of grace.  She always amazed me how she let God shine through her.  Even in her battle fighting cancer, she was full of hope and goodness.  I'm thankful that I got to baptize her many years ago at Wasilla Christian Church.  I know she is in no more pain.  No more battling.  No more tears.  We are the only ones crying as we mourn her loss.  Prayers for husband, Art Dickinson; her son, Richie Dickinson; her grandson little Arthur and Troy.  Prayers for her mom, Esther Hughes, her siblings Tammy DeWitt, Lisa Garson and me (Bill Pagaran) and all her California family.  

She will be missed.  We are thankful that she is in her saviors arms.  

Art and Richie work hard keeping things a float, paying off the incredibly huge medical expenses and now the memorial.  Anything towards her celebration of life services in Alaska and California will be greatly appreciated.

Help us to put faith and "hope" into action: 

Romans 5:1-5
Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have a peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.

Not only that, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out His love into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, whom He has given us.
