To the Family of Mr. Dixon, as I knew him. I will always remember the encouraging words Mr. Dixon would always share. His kindness, wisdom and friendship. Little did I know he was setting an example of manhood right before my eyes. Thank you so very much, I will always remember you! See you later!
May the God of peace keep you (his entire family) at this time and may you find comfort in the memories Mr. Dixon gave.
God Bless and Keep you!
