Good morning Family, my name is David Dixon iam the youngest of the Dixon Boys from South Phenix City. When I was 8yrs old my brother(Bobby) was in the High school Band South Girard HS. We all enjoyed watching him play his Trombone we called him"Trombone Charlie).He encouraged me to get in the Band. As result of that encouragement, I became a Drummer in SGHSBand and received a Scholarship to Alabama State University Marching Hornets, from 1967-1971.As Bobby is now playing ln Christian Band in Heaven, I thanked God for my brother Bobby!
