My sincere condolences to the family on your loss. But may your heart be comforted by the hope of the resurrectiona reality as demonstrated by Jesus at John 11:39-44.

Lee and family. Terry and I were shocked and so sorry to learn of the passing of Dixie. Words are too hard to express our feelings. Dixie was always such a delight to be with, her smile always brought such warmth and happiness to everyone she was around. We had such a long friendship, never losing contact since the early days of Oakcreast and Anacostia. I am so happy we were all able to renew our friendship with many from the Oakcreast group in December. We will never forget Dixie and always remember her friendship.
