Continuing to celebrate Dickey's memory are his sons Michael Rowe and Richard Rowe, along with his daughter-in-law Margaret Rowe. He is also survived by his sister Vera Antonucci and brothers Robert and John Cumiskey. Dickey has eight grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren, as well as, many loving nieces and nephews.
