Fulvia Call Dixon Law
1916 ~ 2014
Our loving mother, grandmother and sister, was called to her Heavenly Father on February 20, 2014 from her earthy home in Provo. We believe she was met with a joyous reunion with loved ones.
Fulvia was born November 11, 1916 in Colonia Dublan, Chihuahua, Mexico to Anson Bowen Call and Julia Sarah Abegg Call. She grew up in the Mormon Colonies in Mexico where she was sixth of twelve children who adored each other. She graduated from Juarez Stake Academy in Mexico and attended Brigham Young University in Provo.
She married her beloved husband, Howard Banks Dixon on September 22, 1937 in the Salt Lake Temple. They had four children whom they raised in Provo. They were happily married for just over 38 years when Howard passed away. She married Reuben Deem Law three years later in the Provo Temple. Their sweet union was ended just 2 1/2 years later when Reuben also passed away. She was a widow for nearly 33 years.
Fulvia was a homemaker whose greatest joy was her family. She loved spending time with them and was happiest when her “dear ones” were gathered around her. She loved cooking, quilting, sewing, crocheting and knitting. She was often working on leper bandages, hats or toys to send with the LDS Humanitarian Services to bless the lives of others in underprivileged countries. Much of her service outside her home was centered on her unwavering faith in her Savior and membership in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She served as ward and stake Primary President, a leader in the Young Women organization, and a member of the General Board of the Primary. She also served four temple missions to Peru, Guatemala and Mexico City (twice). Being fluent in Spanish, she often served as a translator in her various callings. She lived an incredible life where her influence and love will be felt for generations, and she will be greatly missed.
She was preceded in death by her husband Howard, her second husband Reuben, her son Jerald, two grandsons and eight of her siblings. She is survived by her children: H. Allen (Linda) Dixon, Janet (Mike) Rees, Ken (Jan) Dixon and a daughter-in-law Karen (Jerald, deceased) Dixon; three siblings: Eran A. Call, Ruth C. Evans and Vesta C. Brown; 15 grandchildren, 48 great grandchildren and 1 great-great grandchild.
