I am so sorry Lee. My heart is broken for you. I am so thankful for our friendship over the years at church. She welcomed me into the church & her & I started the women's ministry together & we would talk almost every day discussing our plans. She was taken too early from us but my comfort is knowing she is in heaven & reunited with her family.

Our hearts are devastated in the loss of our beloved friend Dawn. She was a sister to us all at the Willard Church of the Nazarene. I will miss her hugs and the times we would pray together. I am so thankful that I was able to see her Sunday at Church and talk with her. She had given us a full bag of toys not long ago for our dogs and I told her how much they enjoyed them all. Such a giving and thoughtful friend she was. Her radiant spirit & smile brought so much joy to our church and those around her. Our love, hugs, thoughts and prayers are being lifted up for our brother in Christ -Lee and his entire family. Dawn -We love you and will miss you terribly -but we know you are with our Heavenly Father -smiling as you hold his hand walking in paradise.

I worked with Dawn all of her 26 years at the City. Dawn had a contagious laugh and we had many laughs together. I’ll always cherish those memories. She was very conscientious at her job, loved dogs, and was faithful to Jesus. Her death makes me sad, but I know to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. See you soon, friend.
