Dawn was a beautiful soul, loved by many. Attended school at the Wyoming School for the Deaf in Casper and later graduated from the Montana School for the Deaf and Blind in Great Fall, Montana.

She spent most of her adult life in Billings, MT surrounded by family and friends. It was during that time she had her only daughter Sara (Keever). Dawn was a kind and loving person. If ever there was a need she was there willing to help. Opening her home to friends and family in need. Especially her nieces and nephews. She could always find the best in everyone.

In 2006 she moved to Worland, Wyoming after suffering a stroke. In Worland she was close to her daughter, son-in-law and grandsons who meant the world to her. The time she had watching them grow made her so happy and full of joy. This move also brought her closer to her parents. She loved the afternoons at their home and the trips to Dirty Anne’s. Never was there a dull moment, especially when her dad and her would poke fun with each other.
