Here is an update. Thank you all for trying to help me with this. It turns out that it was due to a setting under System Settings->Privacy and Security->Profiles.
System Settings->Privacy and Security->Profiles are usually associated with a Company Computer or a computer enrolled in a Mobile Digital Management Service .
If that is correct - that Very Important Piece of information is crural as this would have explained Why the icon could not be removed from the Dock
MDM ( short term ) for Mobile Digital Management has Total Control on both the Computer and what can and can Not be Done on this computer
My profile was set to not be able to modify the dock. I was able to update it so that now my Dock allows adding and removing app icons.
