DICK
Mattie Dean Dick, 82, of Hinton went home to be with the Lord Tuesday, August 31, 2021 at her home, following a long illness, with her loving family by her side.

Mattie attended Lick Creek Baptist Church. She worked at Pipestem State Park, Summers County Hospital in food service, and Halstead’s Nursing Home as a nurse’s aide, but her pride was in being a homemaker.
