I extend my condolences. Sorry for late entry, I only just found Dixie's obituary while searching for her current contact info. Dixie and my father are 2nd cousins. I was hoping to tell Dixie about a breakthrough in a genealogical brick wall we had been working on for about fifteen years. She would have been overjoyed with the news. Just as I was when she provided key info about my family surname fifteen years ago.

Dixie's family, especially Kelli
Our sympathy goes out to you. Johnnie & I went to Arcata High with Dixie & always remember what a wonderful happy gal she had been. When she married Al he helped Johnnie sponsor the Sr. softball Moose team & even get uniforms from Jerry. They worked so hard at the Moose together. I called Dixie before her operation & told her I would be praying for her. When I called again the following week thinking she was home, her daughter said she was still in a lot of pain. We went to the Moose & heard from so many very teary eyed ladies that she had passed away. They loved her dearly & so did we. I wrote Gail Enright & had notified others of her operation. God will Bless her happy smile where she will be joined with Al.

Grandma, i was ur first grandchild, your "angel," and your friend. Thank you for all the wisdom, love and guidance u brought to my life. I will miss your dimples and laugh when i make a joke, your goofy smile when you thing something "isn't very cute" and special care u gave to those in your life. U and pappa taught the value of honesty, loyalty and giving back to others. You already know how much I love u, I tell u every time on the phone, just now I'll keep telling u in my prayers. I'll miss u grandma, please watch over us and give pappa a smooch for me.
