This year for Christmas Dixie Shivler is getting herself two things: time to spend with her grandchildren and husband and full contentment that the Christian Service Center will continue to help people and move ahead in her absence.
After running the organization for nine years and spending 12 years there, Shivler, 65, is retiring as director on Dec. 31.
