Beatrice Sellers Dixon
August 20, 1924 — July 12, 2015
In Remembrance
Beatrice was the youngest of six daughters born to Robert G. and Ruby Willis Sellers of Wilmington, NC. She is survived by three nephews, two nieces and their families. She was baptized as one of Jehovah's Witnesses on December 1, 1940 and was faithful for 75 years. She was a member of congregations of Jehovah's Witnesses in Wilmington and New Bern, NC and Jacksonville, FL (Southside and Baymeadows). Beatrice was part of a large family who served Jehovah - including her great grandmother, great aunt and uncle, mother, five sisters, two brothers-in-law, nieces and nephews. She cherished her family and loved her spiritual family, but loved her creator Jehovah above all. She enjoyed art and the beautiful things in nature God gave us all, yet found her greatest joy in sharing with others "the wonderful promises Jehovah will soon bring to reality." Beatrice "would want us to remember that Jehovah is a righteous God who fulfills his promise." She is now resting in Jehovah's memory and will wake up as promised. "And many of those asleep in the dust will wake up." (Daniel 12:2). It will bring great joy when her hope to live in a paradise earth becomes real. "Until then may Jehovah the God of all comfort strengthen those who mourn as their loved ones sleep."
