Harold Dickerson

Obituary Harold Thomas Dickerson, son of the late Hilda Mae Turner and Harold Hudson, was born on September 13, 1949 in Salisbury, Maryland. He departed this life on Wednesday, February 22, 2017 at Peninsula Regional Medical Center in Salisbury, Maryland. Harold, who everybody knew as “Nasty-Man,” attended Salisbury High School and later entered the United States Army where, after serving a tour of duty in Vietnam, he received an honorable discharge. Harold married Peggy Lee Lockwood on August 23, 1969, and together they had two daughters, Antoinette Marie and Michelle Lee. Harold’s last job, before he became disabled, was as a truck driver with Eastern Shore Disposal Company. He loved the outdoors and one of his favorite past-times was fishing. Harold loved taking his boat out on the Nanticoke River during the summer time and bringing his fresh catch of the day home to Peggy to clean. He would also make sure that his friends received some of his fresh catch. Harold was a member of New Missionary Baptist Church and was also affiliated with Freedmans United Methodist Church. He had a daily ritual of listening to scripture readings on CD’s, praying for his family and praying for God’s continued strength. His favorite gospel song was “I’m Free” (Praise The Lord, I’m Free...No Longer Bound). Harold leaves to mourn his passing: his devoted wife, Peggy Lockwood Dickerson; his daughter, Michelle Lee (Darnell) Marshall of Princess Anne, MD; two sons, Corey (Rashida) Curtis of Salisbury, MD and Brian (Shayla) Baldwin of Belcamp, MD; grandchildren, Alexis Minton, Dinnell Marshall, Corey, Jr., Rashid, Rayshawn and Koran Curtis and Zayla Baldwin; one brother, Wallace (Audrey) Showell; two sisters, Karen (Leon) Chisum and Harolena (George) Bivens of Salisbury, Maryland; three sisters-in-law, Joyce Hatten, Angela (Frank) Marshall and Joan Lockwood, two brothers-in-law, Foreman and Charles Lockwood; two special friends, Reuben Brinson (“Youngblood”) and Gerald Goslee and numerous other special cousins, relatives and friends.
