Dawn, what can I say. Growing up you were my idol. My big sister. You knew EVERYTHING about me. I admired you and your strength. You were kind and loving and so smart. All I ever wanted was to be like you. Beautiful and popular and loved. Sadly as I grew up we lost contact, but I will never forget you. My heart hurts so much right now. The only comfort I have is knowing that I carry your name, thanks to the bond you formed with my mother while I was in her womb. As long as I live, your memory shall carry on. I promise to continue to tell others how I got my middle name. To your family, please be strong... Love NEVER dies. In heaven there is NO pain. Love always
