I´m so sorry to hear of Dawn´s passing. I know it was sometime ago but I just found out now. I knew Steve & Dawn when I lived in San Francisco in the 1990s. I relocated to the pacific northwest in 1998 & we lost contact. Steve you were so good to her! Blessings.

Dawn and I shared only one class when we were at Stony Brook, but it was early on in our degrees, and I considered her one of my best friends. When she went to Colombia, I felt a real sense of loss because I had no fixed address, and in the days before cell phones and social media, no idea of how it would be possible to stay in touch.

Two years ago today that cancer took you from us - while time moves on, the love, friendship, and Dawn-ness that you gave us remains strong in my heart. As I continue to try and build the life you'd want me to have, I know you're beside me and that I'm a lucky man knowing you'll always be there for me as long as I open my heart to listen.

Martina and I went by yesterday to put flowers for you at the Columbarium.
What a lovely place.

Hard to believe it's been a year since your passing, but know your spirit is alive in the laughter and love of your friends and family, who speak your name often and smile and laugh at all the times and slices of life we had. While my heart aches we can't share this morning's sunrise together, so much of me is "us" that you will see every sunrise and every sunset that I see, and you will live out dreams with me...for all the things I see and do and all the many adventures life has in store...
