Not sure what to say?

I know we never met but my mom said you would have loved me. Kate had 2 twin daughters my names Quinn and my sister is Ella. I would have loved to meet you. Your ex wife(my granny),my mom, and my grandpa(granny´s husband) talk very fondly of you. Your work in law has inspired me to go into law/politics. Anyways I love you.

Thank you to Dr. Dawson's family for sharing him with the juvenile justice profession in Texas all of this years. My deepest sympathy and god bless.

My sympathies and prayers to the Dawson family. I know it was a difficult lost, but the pain only lasts a short time. Then, we remember the joy, knowledge, and all of his wonderful unconditional giving that Professor Dawson bestowed on his students, and other professional colleagues. I will miss Professor Dawson. Again, my sympathies to his family.

My deepest sympathies to Dr. Dawson's family. I spent quite a bit of time with Jan riding horses a few years ago, and was saddened to read of Dr. Dawson's passing.

Professor Dawson was my "hero", he was brilliant and I so admired his down-to-earth attitude. May we meet again. MMMMMMMMMM:)

Texas Juvenile Probation and Dr. Dawson are inseparable. Dr. Dawson has been a beacon to juvenile professionals at all levels helping navigate through a labyrinth of juvenile law. He will be missed but not forgotten.
Condolences to the family during their time of grief.
God Bless

We have truely lost a Legacy in the juvenile system. God Bless

Dr. Dawson will be greatly missed. He always quickly responded to questions posed by a police officer assigned to the youth unit. I now have a better understanding of the purpose and function of the Juvenile Justice Code. Thanks to Dr. Dawson, countless Police officers throughout the state are, undoubtably, handling juvenile offenders in a more efficient manner. I am one of them. My thoughts and prayers are with the immediate and extended family of Dr. Dawson. No one can replace him.
