Pittsboro Christian Church To Dedicate New Organ May 2
MORRIS AND ELIZABETH DILLON
On Sunday, May 2, during the 10a worship service, Pittsboro Christian Church will be dedicating a new organ.

She taught for 33 years, mostly in fourth and fifth grades. The Dillons lived on a farm in Boone County for many years. After Morris’s death, Elizabeth lived in Houston, Texas and in northern California near her daughter and son-in-law. She passed away in 2003 at age 95. Pittsboro Christian Church, 209 North Meridian Street, Pittsboro, invites you to celebrate the gift of the new organ and remember Mrs. Dillon.
