Gina Dickerson Obituary

Gina Jeannie Samora Dickerson, 52 went home to our Lord and Savior on June 7, 2009. Born May 31, 1957 in Monte Vista, Colorado, she resided in Colorado Springs with her devoted husband and her doggie companion. She is survived by her husband James H. Dickerson, her two children Melanie Mau and James Joseph Dickerson, and four dearly loved grandchildren: Angelo, Natalie, Jacob, and Allison. Other surviving family members include numerous nieces and nephews as well as great-nieces and great-nephews, and seven siblings: Viola Trujillo, Mabel Duran, Effie Oster, Florence Pacheco, Lillian Ward, Lucinda Armenta, and Anita Smith. Gina Dickerson was preceded in death by her father Joe Samora, her mother Jennie Samora, her brother David "Chopito" Samora, and granddaughter Naomi Thompson. Gina was a homemaker for 34 years. She was a compassionate and amusing sister; a witty and entertaining friend; a trusted and valued aunt; and a cherished and adored daughter, mother, wife, and grandma. So many people were blessed to have known Gina, and so many people will deeply miss her. Memorial Mass will be held at 1:00 PM on Friday, June 12, 2009 at St. Dominic’s (formerly known as Holy Family Catholic Church) in Security. Colorado.

Mrs. Dickerson will always be in my heart. She was like a mother to me in elementary when Joseph and I met. Growing up, I looked forward to seeing her "bumping into her at King Soopers" and hearing how the family was and how she was doing. Her smile and loving character brightened my day. It was as if she was an angel sent to me on a saddened day, so that I could smile. I am deeply sorry that I could not be there to be the angel for you Mr. Dickerson, Melanie, Joseph, and the rest of your family. Please know you are in my prayers and thoughts right now, as you always will be. Mrs. Dickerson will always be in my heart. I hope her love and smile will stay with me, so that I can pass it on to others.

I will always remember Gina with her beautiful smile and sense of humor. She found great pleasure in helping others. She loved her family and always had time for her family. She loved being with her grandchildren. I will miss her so much.

Today I found out that Gina passed away
A blessed friend born in the month of May.
She came to me in pain,
She said it felt like flames,
And we were able to overcome.
She always made me smile,
And this always lasted awhile,
Over time we became great friends.
We lost touch over the years,
Reconnected with joyous tears,
I was looking forward to seeing her soon.
I said, "Good-bye, I love you!"
She said, "God bless, I love you too!"
And I felt her warmth as if she touched my hand.
Then God called her home,
Reasons unknown.
Now she's running on those golden streets.
She's with her Lord today,
And I can hear her say,
"God bless, I love you too!"

I will always remember my Aunt Gina as someone who could put a smile on my face no matter what. She would always make people laugh and find jokes about everything. Whenever my mom would go to lunch with you she would come home and tell me her stomach hurt from laughing so much. You always cheered her up. You will be missed very much. God bless you Uncle Jimmy, James Joseph, Melanie & kids. Keep your memories close to your heart and always trust God.
