Candace E Dix

Candace E. Dix, 62 of Wilmington Vermont, fondly known as Candi, passed away on February 2, 2022. Candace worked the front desk at Andirons Lodge in West Dover for many years where she made many lifelong friends. After Andirons closed, she worked for a wholesale tour company until the pandemic. One of her favorite places was the beach at Wards Cove in Wilmington. She was an avid Nascar fan and rooted for Jeff Gordon since his rookie year. Candace is predeceased by her mother Laura E. Dix, father Howard C. Dix, and brother, Randall B Dixon. She is survived by her fiancé and partner of 40 years, Bruce Fuller of Wilmington, sister Lorraine Saunders (Walter Coltey) of West Dover, and brother Charles “Skip” (Terry) Dix of Whitingham. She is also survived by many nieces and nephews, John (Michelle) Knapp and daughter Karli, James Knapp (Amy Kaneshro) and sons James & Alexander, Laural (Russell) Colbert and their son Dale, April (Art) Pieger and children Katalina & Beneteau, Melanie (Darby) Howe and their daughters Madison & Hailey, Victoria Groeger and her daughters Alicia Lassiter, Ashley & Amber Groeger, Samantha (Brad) Betit and children Marissa, Miranda, & Kaleb, Sarah (Rodney) Sprague and their children Conner, Caden and Collin. She also leaves behind many close-knit cousins. “If it wasn’t for the loving care I received from my lifelong partner Bruce, and my sister, my journey through these last few months would have been impossible.” A celebration of life will be held in the spring. In lieu of flowers donations can be made to Deerfield Valley Rescue.
