Dawn E. Rettig

I just found out about the passing of Dawn. I knew Dawn from her sister Kim. We all use to have so much fun at our job in McHenry (Dobyns House). She was always such a bubbly person who worked so hard at what she did. God bless the whole family and find healing in his Word.

Dawn, I can not begin to describe the complicated emotions that overtook me when I received news of your passing, it's been very hard for all of us hallmark friends to accept this. It's been since around your accident since I've seen you, and thankfully less time since we last chatted. We've spoken of you a lot in the last week and foraged for all the memories we could think up of the "good ol days". Of your gift wrap guru skills, your constant positive vibe you brought to every job, the...

As Dawn´s older brother, I was privileged to enjoy many joyous memories with her and the rest of our immediate family including Thanksgivings, Christmases and so many more. There is no doubt that she brought a bright and gifted spirit wherever she went. What I miss the most about my sister is her ability to selflessly do for everyone and want us to have the most enjoyable experience possible. On a personal note, I feel her loss greatly. I love you "Miss " and I´ll see you again.

You were and remain a dynamic personality and a bright star. Never knew what was coming in your company but knew it would never be dull. Rest in peace sweet friend. Remembered well, always.

Our hearts are broken. Dawn was so special, so full of life and love. It´s hard to imagine life without her. May all of your sweet and fun memories help you to find peace. God bless you, Jeff, and girls. Thinking of you and sending hugs and all our love.

Although I knew Dawn for 15 yrs, the event of the recent few years is what bonded us in friendship as I was honored to help her through a difficult injury. I still cannot believe she's gone. Rest In Peace my sweet friend. You were a champion. A fighter. A woman of great value. You were respected. And you were loved. You will be sorely missed and remembered with a soft smile forever.
