Obituary of Frank S. Nickerson

FRANK S. NICKERSON, 56 of Lincolnville, passed away February 24, 2012 at his home from a long illness of cancer. He was born in Massachusetts on February 9, 1956 to Ed Nickerson and Caroline A. Wing (Heroux). Mr. Nickerson worked for the Town of Fairfield for many years and then the Kennebec Water District. He lived most of his childhood life in Belfast. He was a dedicated father and friend who loved the outdoors including fishing, hunting and camping. He also took pride in working in his garden. Frank was a big fan of the Red Sox and New England Patriots. His greatest gift was making others laugh. He was a man with not so many words, but it was the little things he did for others that made them know just how much he cared. Frank was predeceased by his father Ed Nickerson; a brother Charles R. Kimball; brother-in-law Carleton Mitchell. He is survived by his mother, Caroline A. Heroux, his fiancé Joni Dyer, his two sons, James S. Nickerson, Dean Pushard; two daughters Heidi L.

The children would like to take this time to also thank Joni Dyer for standing beside our father in his time of need as well as others who took the time to care for him during his last days.There will be a celebration of life 2 p.m. on March 10, 2012 at the residence at Route 1, 3 Dyer Drive, Lincolnville.
