Spartanburg, SC – Russell Joseph Dix, 74, of Spartanburg, passed away Monday, April 12, 2021. He was son of the late Joseph and Lucille Dix and loving husband of 31 years to Sally Dix. Mr. Dix was born in Rhode Island and although he was a resident of South Carolina for 40 years, he still spoke with a very noticeable north-eastern accent. Frequently, those around him would joke about it. He was a member of Joy Lutheran Church located in Moore, SC and loved working in the sound room, ushering and doing his duties. Mr. Dix very joyfully retired in 2012 and loved to spend his time involved in golf leagues, woodworking, and photography. It was his dream to have a house on the lake and he was able to accomplish that by building a house on Lake Lyman with his wife, Sally. Mr. Dix is survived by his children, Brad Dix (Amy) of Myrtle Beach, Paul Copeman (Elizabeth) of Georgia, and Katie Copeman of Tamasee; his grandchildren, Ryan Dix, Devin Dix, Braxton Copeman, Kellen Copeman, and Carys Copeman; his siblings, Dave Dix (Nancy) of Rhode Island and Barbara Burgener of Spartanburg; as well as many other friends and family members.
