Charles Ray Dixon of North Little Rock, Arkansas, passed away February 23, 2021 at the age of 80.

Charles grew up as one of eleven children born to a share-cropper and his wife. With only a 6th grade education, he went on to raise a family and earn a G.E.D. He joined the NLRFD in 1969 and retired in 2006 as Battalion Chief. He led by example and in turn he was followed and adored by his men. He was loved beyond measure by his wife, Geneva and by almost everyone whose life he touched. Charles served our country in the Army Reserves. He was an avid hunter and enjoyed woodworking. He will be sorely missed.

Charles was born in North Little Rock to Itha Sory and Ralph H. Dixon. His survivors include his loving wife, Geneva Moffett Dixon; children, Matthew Dixon and Angela (Mark) Hall; grandchildren, Christopher Hall, Jason (Krystle) Hall and Derek (Callie) Miller; great-grandchildren, Hayden and Madison Hall, and Ireland and Daxx Miller. He is also survived by his brothers, Leon, R.H., and Carl Dixon; sisters, Alene (Jack) Estell, Margie Kelley, Brenda Akel, and Elizabeth (Larry) Brown; sisters-in-law Annie Dixon, Judy (Bill) McClain; brother-in-law, Jimmy (Susie) Moffett; a host of nephews and nieces, and special family friends, Louann Gardner and Shelby Holt.

Charles was proceeded in death by his brothers, Harllen, Arvel, and Michael Dixon; sisters-in-law, Loretta, Betty, and Shirley Dixon; brothers-in-law, John Akel and Ed Kelley; and daughter-in-law, Rebecca Dixon.

Funeral services will be conducted at New Hope Church of the Nazarene, 5519 Atwood in Little Rock at 12:00 noon, Monday, March 1, 2021. Private interment for family will be at Bethel Cemetery.

Mrs. Dixon, Matt, & Angela,

We are so sorry to hear that Chief Dixon had passed away. He was one of the best Captains/Chiefs we have ever had on the department. I always enjoyed working and talking to him. No matter what the circumstance was he could give you that grin and in a soft voice just lighten any situation. I know he will be missed by everyone that knew him but rest in comfort that we will see him again.
May God Bless and comfort all of you during this very toug

So sorry for your loss. I know you will miss your dad as a father and also as your friend. I’ve lost both my parents. But I have a means for myself to help with the sense of loss. I go to the cemetery on occasion and speak to them and bring them up to date on the family, work, etc. as if they are there and listening. That makes me feel close to them and lessens the reality of life and death and my grief.

Matt and Family,
Your dad was truly one of our countries founding Americans. Rooted in hard work, responsible for his own life and achievements, with solid family values. I’m sure he was a exceptional role model for you and many others he touched. America will miss him! We are so sorry for your loss and hope you find peace in all he accomplished in his life.

Matt,
The one thing that stood out most to me about your dad was his patience. He took time to teach, instruct and mentor me. I appreciated this back during his time as my Battalion Chief. I still value his time he spent with me. Jane and I are saddened about his passing. But we look forward to being reunited with him again in the presence of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
