JUNE 18, 1937 - JANUARY 27, 2023
On January 27, 2023 The Angels of God whispered: “Bernice, come now and take your rest.”
“Celebrating 85 Years of Life!”
Bernice Dixon Hudson, a native and lifelong resident of Prichard, Alabama was born on June 18, 1937 to the union of Badie and Minnie Dixon, Sr. She departed this earthly life on Friday, January 27, 2023.
Sister Bernice accepted Christ at an early age and united with the Saint Wisdom Primitive Baptist Church and later joined Cedar Grove Baptist Church, where she remained a faithful member until failing health prohibited her from continuing her service.
