It is with broken hearts that we announce the unexpected passing of our beloved Dawn Charyl Marker, 47, in Palm Harbor, FL due to natural causes. Many of us called her “Dee” as shorthand since the Jersey way of saying Dawn, as her Read Obituary
OH, Dawn, I'm going to miss you so much. I was so looking forward to hanging out with you and catching up when I come to visit next year. This is all so surreal to me. You were so young and vibrant. I will miss you so much, you always made me laugh and smile. Sleep with the angles now Dawn and Know you will always be alive in my memories of you! Rest well, my friend.
I'll miss Dawn everyday
I remember how fast she drove, ...like a 17 year old kinda fast, it was unreal. She absolutely loved it. D would blast 90's grunge or old rap on sirius and fly down 19 like it was therapy. I was warned before I got in her car... it was still startling.
Her kindness melted people. Once you are in w D.... which isn't easy, her friendship is the best part of your day. Her humor and heart will always change your collective situation no matter how dark things seem to be. She never gave up on making life better. If Dawn is on your side you are okay.
When my parents were in nursing homes and then later hospice Dawn gave me all the time and love anybody could ask for. She listened to me jabber about a bunch of sad stuff at length and didn't turn away. I then listened to her life stuff, and we met in the middle.
Make XXit happen, so good, Lu do what Lu do, what's doing, enrichment, everything is Jake, Steve Harvey?, MMA, bonnet jokes, MJK?, Rollins, parading Lucy, Hemmingway, po bingo the dog out in the yard, loosing in pool, your tireless love and defense of the the majestic sea turtle, the beautiful sound of your voice, you laugh so easily and uncontrollably it changes everything, the way you forgive and give piles of grace with out flinching, your sweet heart, standing meals, dive bars, you in my arms.
I'd only have made more time with you.
Love Vinny -
Having difficulty saving my comments on this Tribute Wall. Very grateful to have known Dawn. She was and is a wonderful person. Stacy’s video tribute was beautiful. I made a donation to Suncoast Bassett Rescue in Dawn’s honor. I know she loved her Bassetts! Words can’t do justice in moments like these. I ask God’s blessings on Dawn and all of her family and friends who will miss her so much. I recall words spoken at my father’s funeral many years ago that have stayed with me…in times like these, we look backward in thanksgiving and forward in hope.
Love,
Lorrie
Oh, Dawn, my beautiful cousin! Even so far away, in both miles and time, you were such a bright light....
We just met Dawn when Stacy was in Florida for a visit with her sister. Dawn energy was positive and we became friends on Facebook. We were looking forward to lunches together with her and enjoying her company! We did get to have 1 more lunch with Dawn last Sunday. Her smile is beautiful and shows what was in her heart! She will be missed we are sure! Our sympathies to her sister Stacy and Dawn's Mom along with all that knew this kind soul! Cliff & Keith
