Suzanne Dixon passed away on July 19, 2104.
Suzanne was born in Manhattan, NYC to Anthony I. Eyring of Pima, AZ & the former Lois Rockhill of Spanish Fork, UT. An only child, Suzanne, grew up on Long Island, NY, until she left home to attend BYU in 1948.
She was married 54 years to James R. Dixon until his death in 2010. James' career as an executive of the Chevron Corporation took the family to Boston, New York, San Francisco, New Orleans & Louisville, KY.
She returned to college where she completed her BA and Master's Degree in Education at Indiana University where she graduated Suma Cum Laude.

Her husband's career with Chevron eventually took her around the world. A cultured woman and charming hostess, she established friendships in Tokyo, Sao Paulo, Mexico City, Paris, & London. She led a Christian life as outlined in the teachings of her church.
Suzanne is survived by her son, her daughter, who oversaw her affairs during the last 6 years of her prolonged illness in Orem. Her grandson and son-in-law also survive.
