She was a faithful and devoted wife to her first husband and father of her children Webster Coleman, and her second husband Wilson Dick. Exie was a faithful and devoted member of Progressive Church of God in Christ Church in Oberlin where she attended church regularly. She enjoyed cooking, growing flowers, working in her yard, but especially spending time with her family whom she absolutely adored.  Exie was a very kind and caring person and loved to help others anytime she could. She worked hard cleaning houses all her life to provide for her family and her six children.
