Hi Dawn Dawn! Just wanted to tell you that we love you and we think about you everyday. I have your picture on the dash of my car so you can be with me all of the time. And I also have it there so you can watch over Adriana and I. I have one in my room as well. We miss you a lot! I just keep thinking that now Jason has someone else looking after him. Him and the rest of the kids and the family up there. We will never forget you Dawny, you are another one of our angels up there by the stars. Love always,

Denise, Keith, and all family of Dawn. I'm so sorry that Dawn had to leave this world. The times when I was at Stingrays, she always made me feel so at ease, no matter what problem I had at the time. She always was so friendly to me and all the other customers she served and met. I know she will be greatly missed by you and all her friends and relaives. It brings tears and sadness in my heart that we lost such a loving person as Dawn. My thoughts, prayers, and memories of Dawn, are with you always. I'm so sorry I could not attend Dawn's funeral. But please take comfort, knowing that Dawn will always be with you and the many people's lifes she touched. God be with you at this time of need. Randy Krahn.

To Keith, Erica and Family of Dawn. So sorry I could not attend the funeral for Dawn. My thoughts and prayers are with you Keith, Erica and family. I had a special closeness with Dawn. I remember the trips to Prairie we all made on the motor cycles and all the good times we had. Dawn had a good life in the short time she was on earth. Peace be with you in your time of grief.
