Danny Edward Dixon

Mr. Danny Edward Dixon, 59, of Clairmont Avenue, Elberton, husband of 35 years to Connie Ann Brown Dixon, finished his course in faith on Monday, February 6, 2017, at Elbert Memorial Hospital.

He was born in Elbert County on April 13, 1957, son of the late Glenn William Dixon and Martha Turner Dixon. Danny was a 1975 graduate of Elbert County High School and a member of First Baptist Church of Elberton. He worked in maintenance most of his life, and was employed by Spring Valley Nursing Home for many years. An avid sports fan, Danny was arguably one of the University of Georgia’s and Elbert County Blue Devils biggest fans. He devoted much of his time to coaching the young people of Elbert County, and along with Bob Lee, formed the Granite City Crushers.

Left to cherish his memories are his wife, Connie; children: Casey and Shannon Dixon of Garner, NC, and Carrie and Brian Smith of Cheyenne, WY; grandson, Elijah Russell Smith of Cheyenne; brother, Dennis and Susan Dixon of Elberton; mother-in-law, Margaret Yeargin Brown of Elberton; special friends: Marvin and Jacque Denney and Donnie and Jackie Cobo, all of Elberton; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

Memorial services celebrating his life will be held on Thursday, February 9, at 2 o’clock in the Memorial Chapel of Berry Funeral Home with the Rev. Al Butler officiating.

The family is at the residence and will receive friends at Berry Funeral Home 12:00-1:30p.m. on Thursday prior to the service.

Contributions may be made in his memory to T.J. & Friends Foundation, PO Box 6161, Elberton, GA 30635 or to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, PO Box 1000, Department 142, Memphis, TN 38148.
