Deepest sympathy to Dawn's family and friends. Her love for her family and her dedication to dance were evident every day. Though Gina never had Mrs Dawn as a dance teacher, she was such a big part of Gayle's Dance Studio that she touched everyone there.
Our sincere condolences to all who will miss her here, as we look forward to seeing her again in heaven.

My deepest sympathies for the loss of a shining light. Mrs. Dawn has been an inspiration for hundreds of young children. Her smile and love of life will be greatly missed.

To dear Kestra, Mrs. Gayle, Mrs. Teri and family: I was shocked and saddened to hear of your sudden loss. 'Mrs. Dawn' brought so much knowledge, wit and humor of 'Dance' to many! Her abilities built an enormous amount of self-esteem for hundreds of young women, and taught many a heavy-footed father to dance with their precious children. I feel blessed to have gotten to know her while a student myself at the studio, and later as adults with our daughters attending lessons at the studio. I pray for your healing during this sad time. Please accept my sincere condolences.

Mrs. Dawn will be greatly missed. She has touched the lives of many and has helped to shape the lives of many women who are so proud to have danced with her guidance. My heart goes out to Kestra, Mrs. Gail, Mrs. Teri and the rest of the family.
