So sorry! Prayers for the family. She was a sweet lady.
We (myself and Turkey Creek Union Church) was saddened to hear of the passing of Dixie. We had no idea she had passed away until today Jan. 14. Praying for the family and friends. We all loved Dixie and cherish the years she spent at our church all of the good fellowships and singings we shared with her. Heaven sure gained a special angel.
