She spent her formative years married, traveling, and living in Pennsylvania and Bermuda before moving back to the Lowcountry where she established a life full of family and friends.

Dixie was full of zest, spark, and enjoyed life. She was a former business owner of The Mill Inn Social Club. Dixie also had a creative side, expressed through unique crafts, beautiful ceramics, cosmetology school, and her never-ending love for interior design.

She is preceded in death by her children, Teresa Ann Haught, Terry Dean Southall, and Billie Lee Honeycutt; and her grandchildren, Zachary Honeycutt, Kristina Marie Smith, Billy Honeycutt Jr, and Micheal Southall.

Dixie is survived by her brother, David Justice of Chincoteague, VA; her daughter, Cynthia Smith of St. Stephens, SC; her son, Mickey Southall, and daughter-in-law Walcie Southall, of South Hill, VA; her grandchildren, Stacey Hughes, Russell Smith, Monica Carter, and Tommy; her great & great-great-grandchildren, Christopher, Deja, Jonah, Alyssa, Aliyah, Bayleigh, Joslynn, Billy Jr. III "B-Bug", Zachary, Thomas, Emersyn, Evan, Logan, Terry Trent, Savannah, Shannon, Precious, Joshua, Jordan, Jeremy, Jason, Elijah, Alex, Ann, Anika, Russell Jr., Nathan, and Rivanna; her extended family members: The Brown family, Candice, Ashleigh B., Ashley G., Amanda W., Polly, Brandy, Whitney, Hunter, Neko, Timmy, Tavaris, Kyle, and Nick.

The family would like to extend its sincere gratitude to the dedicated caregivers at Lowcountry Community Hospice House, Agape Care and the hospice team for their compassionate care.

"As one of your great granddaughters I want to thank you for making my wonderfully dysfunctional family possible. Every person is a piece to the puzzle we call family, and to be a part of it is an honor. Nannie, you reigned with tough love and a strong spirit resulting in generations upon generations of exceptional individuals. You will be greatly missed. Until we all meet again, and until then, may God keep you in His loving arms."
