Gracedaryl Guffey Dickinson of Prescott, Arizona, went to Heaven on
August 29, 2016. She now awaits her loving husband Robert, so that
they can resume the sharing of their love for each other.
Gracedaryl, or GD as she wanted to be known was born on June 9,
1938, in Clairton, Pennsylvania, to Robert and Grace Garlitz Guffey.
She is survived by her loving husband, Robert; and her children Ann
Sangha of Phoenix, Arizona, Robert Dickinson of Vista, California,
Jeff Dickinson of Redding, California and Polly DeLucia of San
Ramon, California. She is also survived by her brother Robert Guffey
of Perryopolis, Pennsylvania; and her sister-in-law Lori Weaver of
Mesa, Arizona. Danielle Brake of Chandler, Arizona, and Ryan
Soranson of Phoenix, Arizona; her grandchildren and Danielle’s
children, Ethan, Thomas, Kip, and Hunter also survive her; as well
as her special nieces Linda Beckman of Glassport, Pennsylvania, and
Marcia Maffei of San Anselmo, California and her nephew Rick
Haarbauer of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
GD had a beautiful smile. She loved her family and they loved her.
She loved her Yorkies almost as much. She liked to bowl and also
played co-ed soccer with her husband when they lived in Pleasanton,
California. She loved country-western dancing and together with her
husband, saw most of the United States in their motorhome after they
retired. GD retired from the Pleasanton, California police
department after 18 years of service. Before that she was a buyer
for several major department stores in Pittsburgh where her job took
her to New York frequently. She also owned her own clothing store in
Pleasanton. She will be deeply missed by her family and especially
by her husband.
A viewing will be held at Ruffner Wakelin Prescott Chapel, 303 S.
