This obituary is administered by:

Geneva Irene Dickinson (1931-2017) of Medford, OR, passed peacefully away on December 26, 2017 after a courageous battle with Alzheimer’s Disease.

Geneva is survived by her husband of 68 years, Ewell (Dick) Dickinson of Medford, OR; her son, Darrell Dickinson and wife, Leoma of Bakersfield, CA; daughter, Rhonda Nolan and husband, Morris of Golden Valley, AZ; son, Robert Dickinson and wife, Theresa of Phoenix, AZ; son Wesley Dickinson and wife Melanie of Bullhead City, AZ; her sister, Linda Rowan of Paso Robles, CA; her grandchildren, Nathan and Jared Dickinson of Santa Clarita, CA, Crystal Strickler and husband Carl of Chicago, IL, Rob Frederick and wife Colleen of Bullhead City, AZ, and KoCo Frederick of Bullhead City, AZ; her great grandchildren Amarissa Dickinson, Gwendolyn and Elliot Strickler, Karissa Frederick, Bethany Lee, Jamon and Cody Bindschatel, and Emma and Ross Smith. She is preceded in her death by her mother Myrtle A. Allen and her brother Elmer James Price, Sr.


Geneva was born in Bakersfield, CA. As a child, she loved tap dancing and roller skating. She was a graduate of East Bakersfield High School where she met the love of her life, Ewell, whom she married in 1949. She was an avid singer and had a wonderful soprano voice. Not long after getting married, she sang church hymns on live radio Sunday mornings. Geneva also loved reading daily scriptures and found joy in decorating, cooking, entertaining others, and spending time with her family. She was a faithful and essential helper to her husband while he operated a small business for 18 years. Geneva had a tender heart and always had the right thing to say to a friend or loved one in need. She will be truly missed.


A private service will be held at Memory Gardens for immediate family on Wednesday, January 3, 2018. A memorial will be scheduled in the coming months to celebrate her life.

One of Geneva’s favorite verses was John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Heaven has gained a beautiful new angel.

You can to the family or in memory of Geneva Dickinson.
