Dixie was a lovely lady, sorry to hear of her passing. I have good memories of her and Doyle. I remember playing with all the kids when we were little. I am glad she went to Mount Rushmore on my mom's (Donna Geisler) final trip. They had a great time.

Michelle and Melody and families. I am so sorry for your loss. Your mom and I had some great fun times through our Treasurer years. I still remember how she hated for me to move stuff around on her desk when she went to lunch! She was such a caring and giving lady and will be missed.
