Michael Tim Dixon, 68, of McPherson, died January 30, 2023, at Stormont Vail Hospital in Topeka. He was born August 12, 1954, in Wichita, to Marshall G. and Betty Jean (Eberle) Dixon.
Michael grew up in Hutchinson, attended Hutchinson schools, and with his parents, was a member of First Christian Church. Michael loved listening to music of all kinds and had a very eclectic record collection. His favorites included Elvis and the Soundtrack to Grease. Michael was also an avid listener of classical music on 90.1 FM. He enjoyed watching westerns and musicals while listening to music and robustly rocking in his favorite chair, wearing out many rocking chairs over the years.
Michael is survived by many current and former caregivers of Disability Supports who had a special appreciation for his unique personality and developed a deep bond with him over the years. Spring and summer days won’t be the same without Michael sitting outside soaking up the sunshine, calling out to us to come see him.
He was preceded in death by his parents.
Funeral service will be 1 p.m. Friday, February 3, 2023, at Elliott Chapel. Burial will follow in McPherson City Cemetery. Friends may call from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Thursday at Elliott Mortuary.
