I am so very sorry to hear of Senator Dixon’s death. I worked with him for many years in the Alabama Senate, and he was a good friend, a fine man, and an outstanding legislator.

Larry was the best boss I ever had and while he was the Executive Director at the Alabama Board of Medical Examiners his staff and office was amazing— he was so kind and pleasant and fair. Larry was an amazing man with a heart of gold !! Larry touched many lives and it was an honor to know him. He and his wife Gaynell had a beautiful and loving relationship. We will miss Larry !

Larry was a personal hero to everyone who knew him. His dedication, moral compass, and caring for others guided his life of service. He was selfless - his every effort was dedicated to his family, his community, his constituents, and his community. He was STONG and TRUE, loved by all. His personal commitment was a great example of how one person can be an inspiration to many generations. ALL of his family and friends and acquaintances bow their heads in his honor, and thank our creator...
