Bob Dixon

Bob Dixon passed away peacefully with family on December 30th at age 82. A Visitation with the family will be 5-7 pm, Friday, January 6, 2023, at Grace Gardens Funeral Home.

Bob was born to Orville and Beulah Dixon on May 21, 1940, and grew up in Siloam Springs, Arkansas. Bob was a devoted husband to Louise Dixon for 61 years. He was also a loving father to his children, a wonderful Papa to his grandchildren, and a caring BobBob to his great grandchildren. Bob was a hardworking man who was an owner of Dixon Iron & Metal in Siloam Springs for many years before retiring and traveling with his treasured wife and grandchildren in their RV. Bob and Louise moved to the Waco area to watch their great grandchildren grow up. Bob enjoyed spending quality time with his family as the beloved “grouchy” one. Bob not only left an imprint on his family through how he loved them, but also by pouring his love into woodwork. His family will be able to remember those acts of love forever.

Throughout his life, he held an unwavering faith in God, which he shared with those who surrounded him. Bob will be joyfully reunited with his parents and sister, Jo Lynn, in Heaven. Bob is survived by his wife, Louise; his son, Michael Dixon and wife, Teresa, of Crawford; his four grandchildren, Abby O’Reilly and husband, Brendon, of Waco, Austin Dixon of Austin, Katy Shaw and husband, Cody, of Crawford, and Megan Christensen and husband, Tyler, of Winfield, Kansas; and his four great grandchildren, Korbyn Shaw, Holden O’Reilly, Hazel O’Reilly, and Colbie Jo Shaw. Bob will continue to be a legacy for the future children his grandchildren will bring into the world.
