Dawn worked at Elmwood Assisted Living in Tiffin for the past 15 years and loved being able to help all the residents. She was a member of St. Mary Catholic Church, enjoyed cooking, shopping at Goodwill, trips on the Harley with her husband, and loved her dogs. Christmas was Dawn's favorite time of the year. She loved all the baking and decorating and enjoying the happiness that she could bring to others. She enjoyed making people feel good. Dawn's greatest joy was being a wife, mom, and maw maw.
