In Loving Memory

Darrel "Wayne" Dixon

Darrel Wayne Dixon went home to be with his Lord and Savior on August 27, 2021 in Colville, WA.  Darrel was born in Enid, OK to Reece and Marlene Dixon on January 26, 1954, later raised by Reece and Virginia Dixon.

They lived in Washington State for a while until his family homesteaded in Fairbanks, AK in 1962.  Darrell, "Wayne", as we all called him, went to school in Fairbanks and worked at the University of Alaska until his accident that put him on disability in the early 80's.  In the 80's, he moved to Colville, WA where his parents were to be close to them and take care of them in their later years.

Darrell liked his alcohol but loved his family more!  Wayne was known as Santa Clause to all the little ones in the family.  He was a very kind and generous soul.  There was nothing he would not do for anyone.  He was a softy and just a big teddy bear.

Wayne was preceded in death by his parents, Reece and Virginia Dixon, his Sister and brother-in-law Della and Chester Pemberton and sister-in-law Lynn Dixon.

He is survived by his sister Linda Louie and Aaron of Fairbanks AK, brother Reese Dixon III of Peoria, AZ, brother George and wife Bev Dixon of Rochester, WA, sister Leona and husband David Pemberton of Kettle Falls, WA, sister Patricia and Husband Jim Schmidt of Newman Lake, WA, and numerous nieces and nephews.  He will be missed by all!

And the only scars in Heaven are on the hands that hold you now!  Danekas Funeral Chapel is entrusted in care.
