Dawn Vetter Obituary

Dawn Linson Vetter

It is with heavy hearts that we announce Dawn Linson Vetter went home to be with her Heavenly Father Monday July 12, 2021.

Dawn wore many hats but her favorites were wife, mother, grandma and Miss Dawn. She served McDowell County schools for 22 years, as the McSmiles Preschool Teacher. She taught preschoolers readiness skills for kindergarten. She deeply loved each and every student as well as their parents. Dawn was vibrant and upbeat. She never met a stranger and could start up a conversation with anyone. She had the ability to find the good in every person. She loved to make cards for friends and family to spread her happiness to them. But what made Dawn's life so special and impactful was the order in which she lived it, Jesus, others, and then herself.

She will be missed by those who loved her the most, her family. Her husband, Joseph Vetter; four children, Abby, Joe, Karl and Kristin; seven grandchildren, Mia, Landon, Rhyland, Kingston, Braxton, Khyler, and Remedy Rose; two brothers, John and Jeff Linson and their spouses and children.

A celebration of life ceremony will be held at Story Memorial Presbyterian Church Saturday, July 31. From 12 to 2 p.m., will be receiving of friends and from 2 to 3 p.m., will be the service. Additional celebration of life ceremonies will be held at Brown Mountain Bottleworks Sunday, July 25, from 5 to 7 p.m., and The Marion Moose Lodge Sunday, Aug. 8, from 4 to 6 p.m.

In lieu of flowers, please donate to McDowell Mission Ministries or The Breast Cancer Research Foundation.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
