In 1978, it was speculated that Fix would be appointed to replace Senator Michael Maloney in the Ohio Senate, however, the post ultimately went to Richard Finan.[3] She was again reelected to the House in 1978 and 1980, serving as minority whip in the 114th Ohio General Assembly.[4]
Fix did not run for reelection to the House in 1982, and was placed on the Ohio Employment Relations Board soon after.[5] Fix died on October 13, 2019, in Apple Valley, California, at the age of 97.[6]
