Our Memories of Dixie are  many but playing poker with her on Friday’s at the VFW was a blast  and the highlight of our week. Dixie was a darn good poker player and took our money most Friday.  We will forever remember her smile, kindness dancing and  endless love for her family and friends.   We will forever be thankful , blessed and honored to have been her friends.

Grandma Dixie was one of a kind. She always had a beautiful smile that would light up the room. Her family was always so important to her and she loved having them around. I always loved going to visit her and Grandpa Joe.  Grandpa Joe and I would always fight over eating butterfinger, so when I would come over she would have a big stash for me that she was hidding from my Grandpa. She always loved to give to others every chance she had. We had great memories around Christmas time at the VFW and Christmas Eve when she was always a great Santa's helper for the grandkids and great grandkids.  I always loved all our talks around her kitchen table. She is going to be missed and I will always treasure the memories I've had with her. I love you Grandma Dixie. 

When I close my eyes and think of  Grandma, all I see is that beautiful smile.  Growing up I never saw her angry,  (even when i cheated when we played cards, which she obviously knew).  Her positive vibes just made you want to be around her. Smart, classy, and a hip-hip lady. Heaven is gonna be even more glorious now that she has arrived.   I love you so much. 

Dixie was a gracious, loving lady.  She had a great sense of humor and and even better poker face.  I remember every holiday at her house always ended in some kind of card game.  She always had that bowl of quarters waiting to take all our money.  Even though I wasn't born into the family, I've still known her more than half my life.  She will always be grandma to me.  Rest in peace Grandma Dixie, Love you.

Dixie was the best mother-in-law that you could hope for.  Kind, full of grace, a wonderful sense of humor, and with just enough mischievousness to make her fun.  I loved when she would share stories about Blane and Danny when they were young, and roll her eyes at them when they "remembered" something a little differently then how it actually happened.  She was a great supporter of her community, always volunteering, and helping those who needed it.  She was a great grandmother as well, sharing her favorite books and movies, taking the kids to the museum, the zoo, or having them help her make fudge.  She loved to travel and meet people, and everyone who met her loved her.  God has a new angel with a twinkle in her eye, and a beaming smile.  We will miss you Dixie, but we will see you again one day.  Love you,  Sheila 

Mom was the greatest, she loved all of us kids in the family, but she also loved all of the other kids in the neighborhood too.  She always took care of the kids.  Her favorite charity was Children's Hospital.  I remember many fund-raising bus trips to Black Hawk, bringing all of my good friends, we would have a great time and also raise money for the kids.  Mom was always kind, even thanking the nurses with her last breath.  And boy, did she love poker.  I remember all of the holidays, with Mom getting ready to take everyone's quarters!  Love you Mom, you will always be in my heart.  Blane
