Most of her time was spent helping her mother raise her nieces and nephew and
planning and engaging in fun activities with them.  She especially enjoyed attending outdoor music venues and evenings around her fire pit.  Dawne will be greatly missed by her family and many friends.

John 14:2
Let not your heart be troubled: Ye believe in God, Believe also in me.
In my Father’s house are many mansions: If it were not so, I would have told you.  I go to prepare a place for you.  And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, There ye may be also.

…And when the dawn comes you will not be lonely anymore.
