Condolences to the family on your loss. She was such a bright spot at Highland Farms. I think she should have to take the blame/credit for at least ten of my extra pounds, because I loved starting my mornings out by talking to her in the deli.

I am so sorry to hear of Dawn's passing. We used to walk home from the bus stop together during our elementary days. I worked with her at Highland Farms during high school and attended church with her for several years. She was a very loving person and we shared many laughs. I am praying for the family.

I worked with Dawn at Highland Farms back in the 1980's. We had more fun and got our work done. I am sad to hear of her passing. She was a very sweet person. Her family is in my thoughts and prayers. Renee Reed Raines

Seeing Dawn's face here brings back the time we met her in our early years at Swannanoa Heights Baptist Church. She was funny, smart, never changing, and willing to go beyond the call. I remember her more during the Youth Group Days when our children participated. She will be missed by many, especially her family. You can be at peace for I truly believe she is with her Heavenly Father.
Sincerely with sympathy,
Rose Jones
