Dawn Marie, my sister, my friend. You radiated love and happiness throughout your world. You welcomed us with open arms and a huge smile whenever we came to visit, even when we brought the stomach flu with us. You were the first one in line to help us when we moved back to IL from NJ. We have so many wonderful memories of you from holidays, especially Christmas. You had the gift of making any average day feel special. You were always there for others in so many ways. All of your nieces and nephews adored you and you took a special interest in each of their lives- you were always so proud of them!
Cherrie, Bob and Jan, I am so sorry for your devastating loss. Every member of our family is mourning alongside you.
Dawn, I will carry you in my heart for the rest of my life. I know that you are at peace and safe in the loving arms of your Dad and have been joyfully reunited with all of the animals that you loved and cared for. I will see you in every sunset.

Aunt dawn was one of those people you strive to be. Kind, selfless, caring. She was honestly the best aunt anyone could ask for. I will always treasure our summer movie days and the most fun Christmas parties of my life. I love her and will always carry her in my heart. She now gets a reunion with all the people and animals that she loved and loved her back.
