Hello to my beautiful sister in heaven! It still feels like yesterday that you left us. There isn’t a day that I don’t think about you and your beautiful smile. It’s still not the same without you and I miss your voice. I always pray you’re in a better happier place because life is not what it used to be down here. Brandon sends his love and misses his Aunt NuNu. We love you so much!! Xoxo

Hello to my beautiful sister Dawn! it’s still so painful for all of us since you left 12 years ago today. It’s the type of heartache that will never go away. We think about you every day and me and the girls miss you dearly. As we always say we hope you’re in a better place with lots of peace and happiness. It’s not always like that here nowadays. I miss you dear sister. We love you Aunt Nunu! Whe❤️❤️❤️

Dear Dawn,
I hope you always found peace in Heaven. I could be doing better but eventually this to shall pass . You were to good for this world. There is not a day I don’t think of you. It is hard to believe it is 12 years you went to Heaven. I love you very much & we never say Good Bye just until we meet again.

Life is weird! Coincidence? Last year I practiced a song that reminded me of Dawn a few days before this memorial reminder and two days ago, 1/31/24. I posted my original song "Ocean Dawn" on my new virtual live show "The Piano Lounge" on Facebook. Of course that song made me think of Dawn! Strange! No? RIP
Love,
Uncle Jr

Dawn,
I hope you are doing wonderful. I had a mishap on the computer, and we ( mom and I) was hacked of money. Lucky, we are getting it back. I know that you were looking after us. Thank you
I miss you and love you John

Happy 55th Birthday to our Aunt Dawn (aka) Aunt Nunu! Today we remember and laugh about the good old times we shared. We think about your beautiful smile and how much you loved us. You were always so proud to tell the world with a great big smile that "THESE ARE MY NEICES" when we were out together. We miss you so much and wish everyday that you were still here with us as we both begin our careers. We find ourselves reminiscing certain memories with Mommy about you and you will forever be in our hearts. We love and miss you Aunt Nunu!!! We hope your SMILING! Gab & Dani XOXO

Happy Birthday to my beautiful sister in heaven! I will always remember all the birthdays we spent together celebrating you. Of course you loved all the attention and all your birthday presents! I always enjoyed shopping for you and picking out things I just knew you would love. You looked beautiful in everything. I miss you everyday and know that one day we will be together again so I can see you and your smile. I love you Dawn! Happy Birthday to my big sister! Miss you always and forever!

Happy Birthday Aunt Dawn! I love and miss you! Love Brandon xoxo

Happy 55th Birthday sister. I think about you every day and hope you’re happy where you are. Unfortunately we are living in some hard times right now Dawn. Brandon graduated from High School last month and starting college in September. You would be so proud of your nephew. I hope you are doing well! Enjoy your special day sis! Love and miss you so much. Love your sister Dana xoxo

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAWN!
Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me, even though they die, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die.'" John 11:25-26

To my dearest sister Dawn,
They say there is a reason They say time will heal;
Neither time or reason
Will change the way i feel.
Gone are the days We used to share, But in my heart
You are always there.
The gates of memories
Will never close;
I miss you more than
Anybody knows...
Love and miss you everyday
Till we meet again
Always & Forever I love you ❤️
Love your favorite sister Dana

    Dawn is gone from the Earth but not forgotten. This is so coincidental (or is it?) that I just started to practice this Hymn, "Drawn to the Light" ELW 593, for this Sunday. The first line of the chorus was "Dawn is in sight". I immediately thought of my niece Dawn! I checked my email and behold I saw the Forever Missed Platform. I had picked this hymn several weeks ago but I did not look at it until today. I have never played it before!
    "I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die."
John 11:25-26

Uncle Jr & Adriana

Hello Dawn, here we are on your 11th year in Heaven. It seems like yesterday when you left us. I hope from the bottom of my heart that you found peace .Life is so fragile as we know. I always said God needed another Angel & you were ready. I can never find enough words as losing a child is so hard . I try hard Dawn to get through this journey but I can't pretend it is not easy. Someday I know we will be together again & you will find me. I will love you forever Dawn. You are my Guardian Angel who is looking down on us. I love you & will forever. Some people say you are in a better place, but that place should be with us. I love you my beautiful daughter. Love Mom XO

I WILL MISS YOU, AND I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER YOU. I HOPE THAT YOU ARE HAPPY AND GOD BE WITH YOU.

LOVE
JOHN

Happy 54th Birthday Dawn. I think of you all the time and know you are in Heaven.. You were such a good person & would never hurt anyone. I know you were very patriotic & I know you must be looking down from above & finding this hard to believe. We are all fine here & healthy. For my birthday, John, Simone & Dana went to dinner & I know you were with us. Simone made great cupcakes & you would have loved them. Dawn, there is never words I could say but we will meet again & I love you with all my heart.Mom

Dawn,
After all this time, I still miss you. I had best memories of our time together, around the pool, on the deck, and just you.

I will see you soon. Love, John

Hi Aunt Dawn! . I had a wrestling match today and we WON! Miss & love you. Love Brandon

Hello to my beautiful sister in heaven. It’s 10 long years since you’ve left us, feels like yesterday though. There isn’t a day that I don’t think of you or look at the picture of the two of us that sits next to my bed and wish you were still here with us. It’s still a heartbreak for all of us and we all miss your radiant beautiful smile. I pray your in a better happier place because life is not what it used to be. You’d be surprised!!! Gabriella and Daniella miss their Aunt Nunu. We speak of you often and they know you loved them both very much. You would be so proud of them today. I know your watching down on us all. Stay beautiful my sister. We love and miss you dearly.

Hello beautiful sister. ❤️ I can’t believe it’s been 10 years since you left us. You are so missed and loved very much. I helped an elderly woman that was walking with a walker and her grocery bags today trying to get home. This poor woman was walking all alone with no help. Very sad… I told her my sister must be with me today and sent me to help you. That’s definitely something you would have done. This country is getting so bad Dawn. I really hope you are safe, happy and most of all loved where ever you are. This will never be easy for any of us, especially your Mother. Her hearts breaks everyday! We love and miss you so much! Hugs and kisses to you and Peanut! Love your younger sister Dana. ❤️

Hi Dawn 10 years has gone by and I still think about you every day, you have been a part of my life I will hold close to my soul, we were soul mates for life, I hold our time we had together cose to my haert and can never forget the time we had I miss you and I will always love you Gary

I REMEMBER YOUR MOTHER, GARY, YOU AND ME WERE SITTING IN THE BACK YARD. I WAS ON PAIN KILLERS, AND I WAS MUTTERING ABOUT FAMILY, AND BONDING. I WAS A LITTLE BIT TIPSY. THE NEXT WEEK YOU AND GARY BROUGHT A SIGN AND IT SAID [BONDING ROOM]. I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER THE SIGN.

YOU’RE MOTHER AND I MISSED YOU GREATLY. WE WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU AND WILL NEVER FORGET.
LOVE ALWAYS JOHN

Today is your 10th Anniversary in Heaven. Time goes by so fast that it is hard to believe. i think of you eceryday and know you are in a good place in Heaven. You always had a good heart Dawn & tried to see the good in people like your Grandmother Rita. I know you are my Guardian Angel & for all of us. It is pretty chaotic down in here in our beautiful county. You were always a patriot & so proud to be an American. You wore your flag pin like Grandma. Maybe you could ask God to help us down here. John & I were sick for a while .We are fine now & I always knew you were with us & if it was my time you would have given me your hand to go with you.Dana, Simone, are fine trying to get throuh life. Gabby & Dani have growen into such beautiful & responsible women. Brandon has become a man & Dana has done such a good job just like Simone.I hope Pepper has found you with all of you up there. There will always be a piece missing in my heart. I love you Dawn & will always miss you. Love Mom or as you would say Mother Duck xoxoxoxoxo.

I hope you liked the beautiful ballon Mom and I sent up to heaven. We always wait until you are able to grab it. I was talking about you the other day. Do you remember when you got so mad at me when you were teaching me how to drive and I would use both feet. You told me Dana I am going to either chop off one of your feet or tie it to the chair. I wish you were here to teach Brandon how to drive. You had so much patience as a driving instructor. I hope you are happy and doing well. Always remember we all love and miss you. Happy Birthday Dawn!  I love you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hi NUNU, it’s me Gab! I wanted to send you my love today. We talk about you all the time and miss you so much. Our favorite thing to do is look at Mommy’s old pictures of you, Dudi and Dana. What beautiful memories they have of you. I hope your smiling where you are now and I hope you know how much you are loved. We miss you so much.

Love you forever, Gab

Hello Aunt Dawn ( NUNU) , I think of you so often especially when we are looking at old pics of you and Mommy. I wish you were still here with us like old times. I hope your at peace and I love and miss you so much.

Love always and forever, Dani

Hello my Beautiful Sister Dawn. How could it be 9 years that you are not here with us? It’s still not believable and definitely not fair. I think of you every morning as I look at my favorite picture of you and I at your wedding. You looked exceptionally beautiful on your wedding day. I love you and I miss you dearly. I’d give anything to have you here with us. I hope your smiling where ever you are and I will one day see you again.

I love you ❤️

Hello Aunt Dawn! I just wanted to say I miss and love you. We are always thinking about you. Love your nephew Brandon xoxo

Hello my beautiful sister Dawn! I can not believe it’s been 9 years. We all miss and love you so much. I know you are looking down and saying what is going on. Our country has had a lot of crazy changes. Please keep an extra eye on mom because this never gets any easier for her. I hope you are safe and happy in heaven. I think about you everyday! I love you so much Dawn! Someday we will all be together again. Please give Peanut a big kiss for me. Love you. Dana, Brandon and Bailey. Xoxo

Dawn,
I regret I missed the chance to get to know you. But knowing your how much your family loved you and the good memories they have of you make you special to me! Know that I am keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Hoping to see you in Heaven!
Much love to you,
Adriana Reed

You will never be forgotten. You live on in all our hearts and minds!

Hello my beautiful daughter Dawn. Here we are another year since you went to heaven. Alot of changes in the world as you can see from heaven. There is never a day I don't think about you or something that reminds me of you.

We will be together again someday & when it is my time I know you will find me. Many times I feel you with me. I think you were to good for this world. I love you very much & will always miss you. We have many memories that noone can take from us. I hope you are at peace & happy.Love always (Mamma Duck as you always called me).
