I am so sorry Jason, and Dawn’s family. Dawn had an impact on so many with her amazing faith and love for animals. She was incredibly kind and fun to talk to. She always lifted up my spirits- even when you would think she was the one that needed lifting. I will miss her, and will always be thankful for her friendship.
My heart goes out to you, Jason.. Although I never had the pleasure to meet Dawn in person, I did get a glimpse of her personality via Facebook and in the quick chat we had via messenger.. she was a very special person to many and the best of friends to you.. her kindness was evident even via written words.. I am so sorry I was not blessed to meet her in person and she will be in my prayers.. God Bless..
