My heart goes out to all the Dixon family. Your father has gone home and is once again with his beloved Faye, may they both rest in peace. Becky, I sincerely hope that you and Jim will continue growing those delicious Champagne apples in your grandparents memory. My sisters and I have all grown to love them and look forward to buying a few bags every fall; they make the best apple pies.
