Dawn Marie Delmotte Elford, 56, of Kalkaska, passed away on Saturday, October 2, 2021, with her family by her side. She was the loving wife of Gerald Elford, mother of Joshua Elford (Cookie), sister to Andrea Delmotte (Stacey) and Richard Delmotte (Kelly), daughter-in-law to George and Sharon Elford, sister-in-law to Nancy Wolschleger (Scott), Karen Barrow (Brett), Greg Elford and aunt to many nieces and nephews whom she loved and treated as her own children. Dawn was preceded in death by her parents Arthur and Grace (Oakie) Delmotte. Dawn enjoyed planning and organizing parties especially her yearly family reunion. She loved spending time with family and friends and she never met a stranger. The love that she showered on everyone she met immediately made them friends. One of her favorite pastimes was taking pictures of the wildlife she saw daily in her backyard off her deck. We would like to thank Dawn’s work family at MDHHS for all their support and Hospice of Northern Michigan for the care during this time. In lieu of flowers please make donations to St. Jude's or an animal shelter of your choice.
