To the entire Dickins family – I am so sorry to hear of Evan’s passing. I taught Evan geography in Grade 9 at SHDHS, and he did the 30 Hour Famine in 2009. I especially remember him volunteering to help bring out the drinks for the students during the Famine, and mixing up the Gatorade and McDonald’s orange concoction. No words I can offer will adequately ease your grief, but I hope that happy memories of a fine young man, and the love and support of family and friends will help you during this difficult time.

We are so saddened and shocked by the news of Evan’s accident and the loss of your son. I have many fond memories of Evan and of all the kids growing up on the farm. One particular time stands out in my mind as I write to you today. Julia came to me quite frantic as she could not find Evan anywhere on the farm. I joined the search and found him comfortably relaxing on the couch watching my TV at my house! Evan was a great kid with a wonderful way of making you smile. He will be missed. So very sorry for your loss.
