SINGER,Mary Susanne "Dickey" SingerSINGER, Mary Susanne "Dickey" (nee THOMAS) Singer  -
February 10, 1925 – June 12, 2024

Dickey passed away peacefully, in her 100th year, with family by her side.

She was predeceased by her husband, Robert Paul Singer (1926-2019); and was the only child of Julia Lindsay and Earl Sidney Thomas.

She will be greatly missed by her sons, Tom (Joanne) and Peter (Cathie); and grandchildren, Carolyn (Brian), David (Karrie), Scott (Mia), Jennifer (Philip), and Jeffrey (Michelle).

Dickey was the proud Great-Grandmother of 13: William, Caleb, Liam, Teddy, Ana, Charlotte, Madeline, Leo, Olivia, George, Finlay, Hugo, and Oliver. Dickey lived a full life.

She met Bob at a U of T "go single come home double" dance and they built a life together with Bob taking over and successfully growing her father's business, E.S. Thomas and Co. Ltd. Bob and Dickey shared 72 wonderful years of marriage and had a loving bond, with Dickey often referring to Bob as her "boyfriend," while displaying her impish grin.

Dickey spent time volunteering with St. John's Anglican Church York Mills, Belmont House and Goodwill Industries.

Dickey was a proud and involved Mother, Grandmother, and Great-Grandmother. She never missed an opportunity to celebrate significant events and spending time with family was of paramount importance. The family would like to express their gratitude to Maria for her loving care of Bob and Dickey for 13 years.

Also thank you to Venetia, to the wonderful caring helpers from Seniors for Seniors (Mary, Lois, Marilyn and Lynda), Integracare, the concierge staff at her condo, and Sunnybrook Hospital for their compassionate support of Dickey in her final years.

A private family service has been planned.

Flowers are gratefully declined.

Donations to a charity of your choice would be greatly appreciated
