De'Sean King Dawson was called home with the Lord on November 1, 2025. We were blessed to have him with us for 8 years.
De'Sean was born in Columbus, OH, on June 10, 2017, with his twin brother, Derrion Prince Dawson, at The Ohio State University Medical Center, to his parents, Deizune Hunter and Dominie Dawson. De'Sean grew up in Martins Ferry, OH where he attended Anna Marie Ayers Elementary School. He was dedicated and recognized as a member of The Experience Church in St. Clairsville, OH on November 2, 2025.
De'Sean's heart will still beat on, as his parents gave the gift of life to give to someone else in need of a heart valve.
He was preceded in death by his twin brother, Derrion Prince Dawson; his grandparents, Rulerce Dawson, Sharon Dawson, and Reverend Allen; his aunts, Patricia Dawson, Patricia Ann Dawson and his Uncles, John Dawson, Arthur Dawson, and Michael Dawson; and his Cousin, Demarion Dawson.
