On Tuesday September 21, 2021 at 10:17 pm our daughter Dawn was lead to heaven by the Angels.

Dawn was born to Roy and Helen (O'Shea) Hansen on August 5, 1968, in Moline. Fifty three years was just too short of time to have that ray of sunshine. When Dawn met you, you were her friend and her smile and beautiful blue eyes drew you in. She married Craig Cox and had two children, Zack and Ashley. She later married John Dixon July 22, 2010, in Rock Island. Dawn worked at the former Bituminous and now BitCo, for 29 years, where she had numerous friends.

Survivors include her husband, John; children, Zack (Trisha) Cox Aledo, IL; daughter, Ashley (Alex) Ryckeghem, Moline; the love of her life, her granddaughter, Brylee who she lovingly called Snicklefritz; her parents, Roy and Helen Hansen, Moline, brother, Scott Hansen, Debary, FL; grandfather, Earl Hansen, Silvis, IL; several aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, and cousins.

She was preceded in death by her grandparents, Jack and Lillian O'Shea and Mary Hansen.

In lieu of flowers and gifts, memorials may be made to the family.

We would like to give a special thank you to her niece, Jennie Brown for her love and help during this time. We would also like to thank the ICU staff at UnityPoint Rock Island for taking such good care of Dawn and being so kind to our family.

We will say goodbye for now. Dawn we love you and will see you again. Rest in peace Daisy May.
