Eva Marie Trauntvein Dixon, passed on to her next calling on May 5, 2022 in Bountiful, Utah.

They later divorced.
There were five children born to the marriage, Lynda Marie (Michael Hale), James William Jr. (Karma), David Jeffrey (Eulale), Barry Scott (Jana), and Richard Blair Dixon (Peter Giovine). Eva was a dedicated mother who loved and supported her children in missions, marriages, families and dreams. She had an amazing memory for celebratory events and sent cards to everyone to recognize them. She loved music and is undoubtedly enjoying heavenly choirs.

She was a faithful member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and set a wonderful example to her family by serving a mission to the Chicago Temple. Her service made her a cherished member of her ward and neighborhoods.
