VIOLA C. (JACKSON) DIXON, 14 Dec 1852 - 27 Dec 1904

   Viola C. Jackson was born in the state of New York, Dec. 
14, 1852; removed to Steuben county in 1856; was married to 
David P. Dixon, August 21, 1871, and died at her home in 
Angola, Dec. 27, 1904, at the age of 52 years and 13 days.  
She leaves to mourn her loss a husband, two children and a 
large circle of relatives and friends.  She began the 
building of a Christian character in her early youth and her 
beautiful life has shed a broad influence upon her family and 
all those who came in contact with her.  She was a loving 
wife, a devoted mother, and a true friend.  Although she 
loved her family and enjoyed her home, yet the call of the 
Master found her ready to obey.  She has passed into the 
perfect life and waits for her loved ones to come.  Funeral 
services were held in the Christian church, of which she was 
a member, on Thursday afternoon, Elder Stauffer officiating.
