Dawna was passionate about her family; she loved to have them all together. She always made sure there was lots of food (cookies especially) and that no one ever went hungry. In fact, she made it her mission to deliver cookies to neighbours and kids just to see their smile. She was full of unconditional love and kindness which showed in her time at Wingham High school as a special needs EA helping kids navigate tough times. She loved her career as a Nurse paying special attention to the elderly, always lending an ear to make them feel heard. She enjoyed helping at the Brussels United Church, baking pies and chatting with the ladies. Dawn loved spending time with Ken going for drives and visiting. She taught anyone she met to be kind and met them with a warm hello and conversation. We will miss her big smile.
