Nickolas Dixie

Nickolas Constantine Dixie was born to Charles and Lucille (nee Wallace) Dixie in Fort Worth, Texas on January 25, 1940. He grew up in the Kessler Park neighborhood of Dallas. He graduated in 1958 from WH Adamson High School where he met and married his lifelong sweetheart, Donna Gail Gardner. He earned a degree from Southern Methodist University. He was committed to service and was a pillar of the Dallas-area Greek community. He was an active and dedicated member of the Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church, a proud member of the American Hellenic Educational Progressive Association (AHEPA), where he held many positions including Supreme Governor. He was a committed member of the Masonic Lodge, Scottish Rite, Knights Templar, Royal Order of the Jesters, and the Tannehill Masonic Lodge. He served the City of Dallas as a Grand Jury foreman and a member of the Board of Adjustments.

Nick loved many things, AHEPA conventions, painting, poker nights with high school friends and fellow Ahepans, Budweiser, sports cars especially Mustangs, horse races and his family dog, Cinnamon.

Nick was a loving husband, father, brother, father-in-law, grandfather, uncle, godfather, and friend to all who knew him. His sense of humor and friendship will be missed by many.
