Andy Dick

Funeral Director/Manager

Born in England in 1962, Andrew’s family came to Canada in 1970. They made their first home in Grande Cache, but moved to Edson in 1973. His first relationship with Foothills Memorial Chapel was when he was 19 years old.  He serviced cars and did general maintenance in and around the building. Soon he was asked to make his first transfer from the hospital and he never looked back. In 1993 he was hired as a full time employee, shortly after he received his Funeral Directors License. He moved to Trochu in 1997 to take over Prairie Winds Funeral Home which he shortly after purchased and successfully owned until 2015. In quiet times,  he would still travel to Edson to help out at the Foothills Memorial Chapel, Edson Funeral Home throughout this time. After the sale of his own Funeral Home in Trochu his stays in Edson became longer. When the Caring Group purchased the Funeral Home he was asked to join the team on a full time basis and moved back to Edson. He takes pride in caring for each family at a time making sure their needs are met.

In the summer of 2025, she graduated from Parkland Composite High School and enrolled in college for the following school year. During this time, she began working at the Edson Funeral Home part-time, where she eventually transitioned into full-time. In her downtime Abby enjoys taking long walks around town and in the bush both alone and with her sister. She loves drawing, poetry, and looking after her aquariums. Abby is expected to graduate from Canadian College of Funeral Service by 2027 and earn her funeral directing and embalming license.
