My heart goes out to all the family. Dawna had a heart of gold. she once apologized for not spending time with Rick and I, but I told we both are busy taking care of our own families which take up most of our time and that is the most important thing. That she is always in our hearts. Dawna will always be in our heart until we see her again. Rick and I will always be here for your family. I love you Dawna!
