Her survivors include: her husband, Norman (Gene) Mixon Sr.; children, Norman Ted Mixon Jr., Pamela Michelle Whipp, Matthew Stanford Mixon; brothers, Joseph Key and Chester Key; granddaughter, Brandy Tieff; 6 other grandchildren, three great-grandchildren and many other family and friends.

The light of the world dimmed greatly with the passing of my Mother. But heaven is shining brightly with her spirit lighting the way !! Although I will miss her smile and the sweet sound of her voice, I know in my heart she will always love me and look over me until we meet again ...I LOVE YOU MOM !!!

I love my mama with all of my heart. I will miss her every day of my life until I see her again in heaven. She truly was a special spirit who held the light of Christ in her heart, and loved with all she had to give. She fought valiantly in the last year of her life so that those who loved her could have just a little more time with her before she had to go. That time will be as cherished as the life we had with her before. This world lost an angel, but, Heaven gained a beautiful soul whose light now shines down on the hearts of all she loved. Until we meet again mama, I will try my best to honor every wish you shared with me and fulfill every promise you asked me to make. I love you for all time and eternity.
