He is survived by his children, Katie Comer (Mike), Angela Carruth (Robert), and Brian; grandchildren, Caitlin, Abby, and Connor Carruth. Al is also survived by numerous nieces, nephews, and extended family. The family would like to thank the staff at Ohio's Hospice of Miami County for the loving care provided to Al in his final days.

Al was a softie, wonderful supervisor at NCR. It has been years since I left but he brings back so many happy memories. Prayers to his family.

To all the family of Al Dix I offer my sincere condolences.
He was a great sports enthusiast and talented player in all the teams he was a part of. From sandlot, OLR , and Chaminade. I am grateful to have been on some of those teams with Al in the past and will miss his company at the OLR monthly lunch.What a great friend! I will miss him.
