Mrs. Dixon was my supervising teacher when I did my student teaching through Winthrop at York Road Elementary in 1973!
She was an excellent role model and greatly helped me toward my 33 years as a teacher for RHSD#3. I was blessed to have had her in my life.
May God bless her family.

My thoughts and prayers are with your family during this time of sadness and grief. Gloria was a wonderful neighbor in Fairlawn and a grand Sunday School teacher of mine at Ebenezer Presbyterian Church so many years ago. She was truly a Southern lady and a sweet friend. She will be missed by many. Sincerely, Kathy Hollis James
