1935 – November 27, 2022
“Dee” Ina Claire Colton of Boerne, Texas, passed away peacefully in her home on Nov. 27, 2022, with daughters Lynn and Darleen by her side. Dee was born in 1935 to Elva (Maier) and Shad Langford Dixon in Fredericksburg, Texas. Her maternal grandfather, Henry Maier, owned the Piggly Wiggly, Saddle Shop, and Saloon on Main Street in Fredericksburg. Her paternal grandfather, George Dixon, was also in the grocery business with his General Store in Bergheim, Texas.
Dee was passionate about her family, art, human friends, canine friends and chocolate. Her family was never exactly sure what order they came in after David, her beloved husband of 66 years, but someplace after dogs and chocolate is a safe bet. She was a wise and quiet counsel who might bid you to “be the person your dog thinks you are,” and she never stopped asking “how would you feel if it was you?”
