Obituary | Dr. Cecile Dickey of Bluffton, South Carolina

I am a counselor and psychologist to a problem-filled child,
I am a police officer that controls a child gone wild.
I am a travel agent scheduling our trips for the year,
I am a confidante that wipes a crying child’s tear.
I am a banker collecting money for a ton of different things,
I am a librarian showing adventures that a storybook brings.
I am a custodian that has to clean certain little messes,
I am a psychic that learns to know all that everybody only guesses.
I am a photographer keeping pictures of a child’s yearly growth,
When mother and father are gone for the day, I become both.
I am a doctor that detects when a child is feeling sick,
I am a politician that must know the laws and recognize a trick.
I am a party planner for holidays to celebrate with all,
I am a decorator of a room, filling every wall.
I am a news reporter updating on our nation’s current events,
I am a detective solving small mysteries and ending all suspense.
I am a clown and comedian that makes the children laugh,
I am a dietician assuring they have lunch or from mine I give them half.
When we seem to stray from values, I become a preacher,
But I’m proud to have to be these people because …
I’m proud to say, “I am a teacher.”

On the morning of March 9, 2025, in God’s infinite wisdom he called his daughter Dr.Cecile Dickey, 87 of Bluffton, SC from labor to rest.

She is preceded in death by her husband;Calvin Dickey, her son Dr.Scott D Harkley, her parents; Mr. Walter Benson and Hattie Benson, her siblings; Phillip Benson, Dr. Helen Kirby.

Cecile leaves a lifetime of memories to her children; Anthony Harkley (Katrina) , Lyle Dickey (Greg), Heath Dickey, her sibling;Gilbert Benson  and a host of other family and friends.
