We all can remember that beautiful smile, the beautiful voice when she sang and her love for God and how much of a prayer warrior she was.  But what few know about Dawn is the sacrifices she made in life, the hardships she endured and the hurt she seemed to acquire. Though it all, Dawn never gave up hope...never gave up her beliefs or her passion to see others saved.  Dawn and I had a really rocky relationship that went from one measure to another, and myself had caused her a lot of hurt and pain in a period of time where I was hurting myself.  After years of not communicating we finally got together and made amends.  She forgave me for the hurt I caused her and we started back on that trend of communicating again.  We talked and shared so many things in the months before her passing, and I even shared the last Thanksgiving She had at her home with her family.  Dawn had a big heart, and to this day I will never forget that no matter what happened between us in that period of time, she prayed for me ....and I know and believe in my heart that if it wasn't for her prayers that I wouldn't be where I am today.  No I may not be in a church building every Sunday, but my heart still belongs to God, and one day I know her prayers will be answered in his timing.  I miss our texts we did every week and our talks we had nights on the phone.  Dawn will always be remembered in my heart as the one who never gave up on me.  Fly Angel Fly....
