We are blessed to have known Dixie and we shared many fun times with her, as well as some tears and prayers, but we will always remember her great sense of humor and her devotion to our Lord, Jesus Christ. We miss her earthly presense but celebrate her home going to eternal peace and joy with The Saviour.
