Dawn was a co-worker at the Washington Township Public Schools Central Administration Building. Always a great help and friendly face in The Payroll Department. Dawn joined in any of our social outings or get togethers always making the event more fun. The picture below is typical of Dawn to join us on Halloween dressed in prisoner stripes. With fond memories, Barbara Bennett

When visiting Philadelphia as a child, I stayed at Dawn's house. Even though I was five years younger, Dawn always greeted me with a smile and treated me well. Even as an adult, Dawn still always had a smile on her face. I'll miss you, Cuz.

My sympathies and prayers during this difficult time. Dawn brightened everyone´s days together in the Washington Township Public Schools (especially mine!) with her quirky style and huge heart. She was uniquely and unapologetically herself, kind-hearted and friendly, supportive and South Philly funny! God rest her beautiful, special soul!

I worked with Dawn for a lot of years at Washington Twp BOE. She was funny and generous and always made us laugh! She had great humor and fun stories. I´m so sorry for your loss. She loved her dogs. And all pets.
