March 18th 2020 – Obituary of Gerald “Tate” Dion

Gerald “Tate” Dion, 88, of Dudley, died Wednesday, March 18, 2020 at home with his loving family at his side. Gerald was born on August 14, 1931 in Webster, MA. He is the son of the late Telesphore and the late Margaret (Lee) Dion.
Tate graduated from St Louis High School in Webster in 1949, and he proudly served his country in the Air Force during the Korean War Era. He held many jobs over his years but was most remembered as the owner of the Pickle Deli in Webster. Tate was an avid golfer and member at Dudley Hill Golf Club. His accomplishments over his life are too numerous to list, but he recently had renewed pride in being a founding member of the Nipmuc Water Ski club in the 1950’s – as he taught his granddaughters to water ski this past summer. He loved his home on the water and opened his doors to anyone who wanted to spend time with him on the pond.
 

2020 was an amazingly challenging year and will be remembered as we all dealt with the COVID-19 Pandemic.  While challenging for our club due to the many restrictions, we were fortunate enough to grow our roster to over 70 members and had an amazing year.  
 
At the end of the season, we recognized several of our members for their accomplishments:
