Lawrence Eugene Dixon
September 15, 1943 – October 13, 2016
Lawrence Eugene Dixon, following a courageous battle with cancer, passed away at home Thursday, October 13, 2016, surrounded by his loving wife, father, brother, children, son -in-law, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren. Lawrence was born in Council, Idaho, on September 15, 1943 to James M. and Myrtle Dixon.
Lawrence attended Meadows Valley Schools and graduated in 1961. He married Sharon L. Myers June 17, 1961. With this union four children were added; Richard, Lloyd, Ruth and Duane. Lawrence and Sharon were soul mates and did everything together. Their love for one another was obvious.
Lawrence is survived by his loving wife of 55 years, Sharon of Caldwell; his father, James M Dixon, Jr. and brother, Jim Dixon both of Caldwell; his sons, Richard of Caldwell, Lloyd (Polly) of Lawton, OK, Duane (Kassie) of Meridian and his Queen B-only daughter-Ruth (Robert) of Caldwell; 15 grandchildren, 8 great-grandchildren, his “adopted” children, John-John, Jerri Lynn (Eller) and Bryan Dean Malvich; and numerous other extended family members, cousins, nieces, nephews and friends.
He was preceded in death by his mother, Myrtle; his grandparents; and nephew, Keith Dixon.
Lawrence never knew a stranger and had the biggest heart of anyone. He will be missed but remembered by many. His smile would light up a room.
