In Loving Memory - Always in Our Thoughts - Always in Our Hearts

Dixi Montooth was born on September 12, 1962, in Reno, NV, and went to be with the Lord on May 12, 2023, in Fallon, NV.

Dixi graduated from Churchill County High School in 1980 and walked down the aisle with her future husband. She married the love of her life, Chris Montooth, on August 5, 1989, in Monterey, CA. Dixi and Chris had been married for 33 years. She adored her two Shih Tzus, Earl Deputy and Spencer Johnson, whom she called “Her Boys.” Chris and Dixi took many trips, but her favorite place was Maui, Hawaii.

Dixi worked in banking for years and then her dream came true to become a hairstylist and the owner of The Electric Chairs Salon. Dixi thought of many of her clients as family.

Dixi is survived by her husband, Chris Montooth, her mother, Peggy Norris, her sisters Debbie Mason and husband Kelly, Dee Vaughan and husband Kelly all of Midland TX, and lots of cousins, nephews, and nieces.

Dixi is preceded in death by her father, Jack Norris, her grandparents, Henry and Gladys Norris, and Marion and Mary Hays.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to CAPS and FAWG animal shelters.
