We will fondly remember his love of cars and his enthusiasm for keeping them clean and maintained. He had a deep love for music, movies, and animals. He enjoyed volunteering with the Special Olympics. Ernest loved tools, weapons, Darth Vader and “particularly good food”. He proclaimed to only wear the “Flyest Fits” and only got the “good stuff”. He was proud to have worked on $225 million dollar aircraft weapon systems. He was a master griller and made a mean pot of crabs. Words to describe his life: loyal, honest, organized, meticulous, loving and last, but not least, earnest.

Ernest N. Dixon departed this earthly life for eternal rest on February 21, 2021, Houston, Texas.
