My many "firsts" that I've had in this lifetime were because we became friends my Freshman year at New Haven. From my first love to learning to Drive the stick shift in the "Ol Omni..I have never heard "Shake Me" by Cinderella and not picture us in the back of your Brothers car. So many good times I reflect on and share with my now teenage son..Thank you for making that happen for me ..RIP and keep the laughter going girl!!!!!!

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Dawn, We just became friends again this earlier this year as I hadn't seen you for 20+ years. It breaks my heart to know that you are gone! I will miss your smile and your laugh. You will always be my friend and I will never forget you sweetheart! It hurts really bad to say goodbye, but i know I have to do it, so goodbye dear friend and hopefully, one day, I will see you again.

You will be remembered as a person who cared deeply for others, a good listener, a wise woman, a person full of life. You were a wonderful friend, you were there for me when I needed you most. We shared laughs during our best times and cries during times of hardship. Unexpected deaths can be the hardest and form a cut that is so deep that only time can heal. I miss you friend and you will hold a special place in my heart. I am sorry for your family's loss and hope that the good memories of you will help ease their pain.

It's just about the worst thing; having to say goodbye to such a vibrant spirit and soul before she could live out a full rich life. Now she brightens the gates of heaven with that radiant infectious smile and laugh. Heavens gain is most certainly our loss. Dawn, we will try not to cry too much, because I know if you could tell us, you would say"please, no tears; I'm going home...RIP and know we Love you.

So you have pain now; but I will see you again,
and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take
