Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this time. To Tiffany:
So go and run free with the angels
Dance around the golden clouds
For the lord has chosen you to be with him
And we should feel nothing but proud
Although he has taken you from us
And our pain a lifetime will last
Your memory will never escape us
But make us glad for the time we did have
Your face will always be hidden
Deep inside our hearts
Each precious moment you gave us
Shall never, ever depart
So go and run free with the angels
As they sing so tenderly
And please be sure to tell them
To take good care of you for me

With Love, Ed and Cheryl Pluck

Ms. Tiff, as they called you at Chester Valley. Thank you for being you and thank you for caring for my son while at the day care. You will be missed but I know that you are in Awesome Hands. The hands of our Lord, Savior, Jesus Christ.

To the Family,

Gods Garden
God looked around his garden
and saw an empty place.
He then looked down on earth,
and saw your tired face.
He put his arms around you
and lifted you to rest.
Gods garden must be a beautiful place,
He only takes the best.

He knew that you would never
get well on earth again.
He saw the road getting rough
and the hills hard to climb,
So he closed your weary eyes
and whispered "Peace Be Thine".

It broke our hearts to lose you,
but you're not going alone.
for part of us went with you
the day God called you home.

If tears could build a stairway
and heartaches could make a lane,
we'd walk a path to Heaven
and bring you home again.

I would like to express my deepest sympathy to my family during this difficult time. Matt, Bobbie, Kevin, Andre, Corey & Jermaine) Tiffany was truly an Angel, not worldly at all,a true example of what God wants from all of us. Everytime I seen her she was very quiet but always had a beautiful smile. I know the loss will be a great void in your lives, and also in the hearts that knew her. I pray daily for God to give you the strength to carry on.

God Bless,
Denise

My deepest sympathies go out to her family. I played basketball with Tiffany on Wednesday nights. She was always a class-act on and off the court, and one heck of a player!

While she slept,the angels came and whispered,"your new home is ready,are you ready to come home to live with us?". She said "yes"; and so the angels picked her up and cradled her in their arms, and quietly ferried her away, with them, to heaven.

Bobbie, Matt, Kevin, Jermaine, Corey, Andre and Families,

As I read the online condolences for Tif it made me proud to have known such a wonderful person. Tif was a quiet, meek and mild-mannered soul. I never saw her angry or heard her say a harsh word to or about anyone. She truly was a living example of how God wants us all to be. The Jesus in her was always shining through.

I know there are no words to ease the pain in your hearts, but I hope you find some peace and comfort in knowing that others care.

Little did you know the day that you gave birth
That God had put an angel right here on this earth

For years we watched Tif and Corey take their daily trip
Over to Minch Park where she’d let that basketball rip

It was a rare thing they had…that special brother and sisterly love
The kind that you know comes strictly from above

Now she’s been drafted to that basketball team up in the sky
Where she’ll shine on the Golden Court with moves likes her beloved A.I.

When she gets tired she’ll sit on the bench and rest awhile
She’ll look down and see us cheering for her and send us all a heart smile

We’ve lost someone special who touched each of us in a different way
And if she had a final word for us, she’d quietly tell us “I’m ok”

Love,
Pie & Toni

To My Cousin Bobbie and Family,

A tournament is defined as a trial of skill in some game, in which competitors play a series of contests. In a tournament the goal is to hang on until you have victory over each opponent through elimination. This does not mean you beat every team. Tiffany won the Tournament of life! She had a series of trials that strengthened her faith. She didn't win every game, but she defeated the opponent of sin and the sting of death by inviting Jesus to be her head coach. While our hearts hurt, I hear a cheer from that great cloud of witnesses! Tiffany wins the tournament and the prize is eternal life. Hallelujah!

I love you guys and I am praying for you all.

May your grief be short and your memories bring peace to your heart.

Mrs. Beachum,
Sandy and I would like to extend our sincere condolences to you and your family. When I heard the news of Tiffany's passing, I was shocked; I had not heard that she was ill and what I remembered is her coming to church on Sunday mornings and sitting quietly beside you. I always received a warm hug from her when I would greet her during services.

God truly is a good God and He will see you through this most trying time, but then you already know that. Please let us know if we can help in any way.

You're in our prayers!
Ted & Sandy Josey

I'm going away. To a place prepared just for me. A special place I'll live eternally (Walter Hawkins)

Dear Sis. Barbara, Please know that we love you and you and your family are in our prayers. I will always remember when Tiffany drove Andre and Starsha to the prom. I will also always remember her sitting in the first pew next to you on Sunday mornings. What a beautiful, kind and gentle spirit she was. She is now resting safe in His arms.

One of these mornings it won't be long you will look for me and I'll be gone. Going to Glory to sing and shout. There'll be nobody there to put me out!

We are here for you always,

Dana, David, Sergio, Starsha, DJ, Dylan and Maya

To Sister Barbara Denson Beachum and Family,

We share in your sorrow and the loss of your beloved daughter Tiffany C. Dickinson. “Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal.”

We have joined with many others in prayer for Tiffany during her time of sickness that she would recover from the illness she had. We are confident that the Lord has heard those prayers and He has answered according to His will.

May you find consolation in this and also for those who have trusted Christ as their Saviour “To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord.”

We continue to pray for you that the God of all comfort will grant you His peace during this time of bereavement and that your faith in Him may be deepened knowing that Jesus doeth all things well whether in Heaven or in Earth.

Continue to trust Him and He will give you strength to endure.

“The Eternal God is thy refuge and underneath are the everlasting arms.”

Reverend Dr. and Sister M. D. Wayns, Jr.

Tiff was one of the regulars in the Downingtown Area women's pick-up basketball group. She was quiet, always friendly behind her shy demeanor, always played hard. Women like Tiff create sparks in the game and cause us all to play better. We will surely miss her.
With heartfelt prayers to her family,
