Dawn Edwards Obituary
Edwards, Dawn M. age 56, passed away Wednesday October 4, 2017 peacefully at her home in Anderson Township, Ohio. Born in Long Beach, California, the daughter of Peter and Isabelle Schlyer.
Dawn was known for her quick wit and sarcastic sense of humor. She loved to read and had the uncanny ability to absorb a wealth of information. She made a lasting impression on everyone she met and became like a second mom to many of her children's friends.
She is survived by her husband of 33 years William Edwards, mother Isabelle Schlyer, children Caitlin (Josh) Knapmeyer and Dylan (Jessica Condo) Edwards, siblings Kurt Schlyer, Jeff Schlyer, and Kimberly Todd, and many nieces and nephews.
The family would like to express their thanks to the Hospice of Cincinnati for their wonderful help and care in these past months. A memorial will be held on Sunday October 8th from 2-6 pm at the family's home.

Dear Bill,
I am so sorry that Dawn passed. I called several months ago and she answered the phone. She sounded well. We had a very nice conversation.
I have left my phone number on your answering machine if you would like to talk. Also, you can email me at [email protected]. We can catch up on family.
Love, Lucille
