When Dawnie loved a person... she jumped in with both feet and didn't hold anything back. I only wish to try to carry her example with me throughout my life. Thank you, Dawn, for so many many stories and laughs.

R I P Dawn. We played paper dolls on your front steps when we were youngsters. Your brother Bruce was my lawyer at one time. You lived around the corner on Granite Ave at that time. God speed.
