Mrs. Dixon was truly a treasure, I had the pleasure of knowing her and her Husband Mr. Dixon thru my Mom (Janice W. Moore) for over forty five years. I remember the times when they would come over to the house on friday nights and dance the night away. Mrs. Dixon always stayed in touch even when both her and my Mom where retired from HUD. You know when you truly have a friend, when your heart aches and there seems to be a empty void. I will always remember Sadie Dixon and offer the family my condolences and prayers.

My deepest condolences to the family. I remember Mrs. Dixon with love and admiration. I grew up in the same neighborhood as she and her family. She was an illuminating presence . Our neighborhood was so enriched by her presence. Even when I was grown and had not seen her for a number of years, she reached out to me when I was in the hospital. Family, may God surround you with His love and comfort. May you always cherish the wonderful memories. Sadie Dixon was truly a queen.

Our beloved Aunt Sadie is now in her Heavenly Home of eternal rest, peace, and comfort. Although there is a vacant place in our lives and hearts, we can cherish the memories of her forever. I will keep my family lifted up in prayer during this time of bereavement. May the Lord continue to comfort us. With heartfelt prayers, sympathy, and love.
