Her mother Tabitha said, "There is nothing Dixie wanted more in the world than to be on Pomona's campus and play with her pals on the softball team for Coach Ferguson. It was her dream and the culmination of so much training that she kept up with all through the lockdown. Her virtual Pomona classmates helped her navigate the two COVID semesters and we will be forever grateful to them for forging bonds with our daughter through mere screens."
Dixie was in a northbound Ford Fusion sedan with her 20-year-old boyfriend Schultz around 3.30 pm on May 25. They had gone on a brief vacation to Lake Tahoe, as per Schultz's aunt Lock Schultz Jaeger. Ross was driving the car on Route 89 near Truckee when suddenly their car crossed into the left lane and collided with a Freightliner.

"She had a fire in her that people could feel when she walked in the room," Soren wrote in an email to the publication. "She used her intensity to bring up everyone around her and she tried so hard at everything she did. When she showed up, she was going to show up 150%."
The fatal car collision occurred on around 3:20 p.m. Tuesday when a 2014 Ford Fusion carrying Dixie and Schultz crossed the center line on Highway 89, according to an incident report from the California Highway Police obtained by PEOPLE.
A 2015 Freightliner truck traveling the opposite direction collided with the sedan head-on. Dixie and Schultz were pronounced dead at the scene, while the driver of the truck, a 45-year-old man from Nevada, suffered minor injuries. Authorities do not believe alcohol or drugs were factors in the collision. Schultz's aunt, Locke Schultz Jaeger, told the Chronicle that said the pair — who met while attending Berkley High School together — were in the Lake Tahoe area for vacation.
"Ross loved his friends and he loved his family and, boy, did he love Dixie, who died with him," she said. "They were funny, they were charming, and they were both very smart. They were kind and they had friendships and relationships that were the deepest and most incredible bond."
