Dixie- there is not a day that goes by that I dont think about you. Miss you more than words could ever say. You were our co-worker, but most importantly you were our friend. Your strength and courage through this battle was just so inspiring- You lifted our spirits when they were at there lowest- you showed us the wisdom of not letting this disease rob you of your being. Your courage and your faith were far stronger than any of us that loved you knew.You will forever be in our lives by the wisdom, courage that you showed. God has gained a very special person. Heavens gain and our loss. Love you DIXIE DOODLE

We started out as co-workers and quickly became friends. You helped me out at a very difficult time in my life when my mom was going through medical issues of her own. I will always be appreciative of your encouragement and support. I hope Loki didn't give you too much grief! I will miss you Doodles. I am glad you are not in pain anymore. You will be in our hearts forever.

You enriched so many lives in your short time here on this earth Dixie, mine included. While you are no longer here on this earth, your gifts of love, graciousness, incredible strength, and friendship will live on in the hearts and minds of your loving family and friends. I have faith you are now in God's heavenly kingdom ~ whole and complete, free from pain. Sleep in heavenly peace Dixie. To Dixie's dear family and friends, I pray for healing and comfort. It will take time which will seem to move ever so slowly, but there will come a day when your hearts will not be so heavy. May God keep you in his comfort and peace.

God looked around his garden
and found an empty place.
He then looked down upon the earth,
And saw your tired face.

He put His arms around you,
And lifted you to rest.
God's garden must be beautiful,
He always takes the best.

He knew you were suffering,
He knew that you were in pain.
He knew that you would never,
Get well on earth again.

He saw the road was getting rough,
And the hills were hard to climb,
So He closed your weary eyelids,
And whispered, "Peace be thine."

It broke our hearts to lose you,
But you didn't go alone,
For part of us went with you,
The day God called you home.

Will miss you Dixie, but enjoy your everlasting life and the incredible company you are in.

Your family is in my thoughts and prayers. Dixie will be missed by all who had the priviledge of knowing her. It is hardest for us that remain behind, but remember that Heaven is For Real!

I had the privilege of knowing Dixie thru work.She was one of a handful that made coming to work fun. And I had the honor of becoming a friend. She was very proud of her family and I always thought she must be the coolest mom/grammy in the world. Dixie will be greatly missed, but we only have to look as far as her family to see shes still here with us.
