Do you know how Dixie and her husband, Dave, met?

Do you know how Dixie and her husband, Dave Thompson, met?

They took an airplane ride over Bear Lake, Michigan, on their first date when he was 20 and she was 19. No wonder she says that it’s her favorite vacation spot.

Dixie graduated from Lima schools and attended Bluffton College following high school. She was a housewife until 1989 when she started working at Marimor. She worked there 10 years before retiring with her husband. 

She says that her favorite occupation was being a full-time mom. Dave and Dixie have four children, Danny, Denise, Debbie and Dawn.

She also says that her family has and will always be a very important part of her life.
