Alvin Harold Dick was born April 25, 1935 to Jacob and Lena (Schultz) Dick in Bingham Lake.
Alvin attended Mt. Lake Bible School (now MLC), Junior High at Bingham Lake Public School and Sr. High at Mt Lake Public School. After graduating from Tabor College in 1957, he did alternative service in Denver, Colorado where he met Bernice Gregory. They were married on August 26th, 1960.
They farmed west of Mountain Lake with his father until his retirement in 1972, at which time his brother Willard joined the partnership until Alvin's retirement in 2000. Alvin's life of service included board Secretary of MLC, church council member, deacon and Sunday school teacher at Community Bible Church. He was also a member of the Gideon's.
His love of history extended from restoring Farmall tractors to reading about Anabaptist history. During the sixteen years he spent on the Heritage Village board, he enjoyed the practical side of keeping the Village functioning. He also served as a tour guide sharing about history in general and Mountain Lake in particular.
He is survived by his wife Bernice of Mountain Lake, sons Steven (Tania) Dick of Cartersville, GA, Johnathan (Vicki) Dick of Fresno, CA, James (Shannon) Dick of Mountain Lake, his mother Lena Dick of Mountain Lake, grandchildren Lydia, Nadia, Savannah, Jacob, Sophia, Tyler, Audrey, brother Willard (Margaret) Dick of Mountain Lake and sister Dorothy (Arlie) Beier of Glasgow, MT.
