Feedback & Reviews
A few years back my uncle who suffered many ailments throughout his life became sick with terminal cancer.
After listening to me vent about the stress that his anger was causing the family a coworker mentioned a woman who had worked with her dying grandfather. She said that the woman was in the area, so she gave me her phone number.
After about week or so I finally gave Dawn a call and I have to say that it was the best thing that we could have done! Whenever she showed up my uncle’s entire disposition changed and after a while there was a noticeable peace about him.
The long- short is that yes, my uncle was still sick and yes, he died from his illness, but he seemed to be settled and at peace when he died. The only way to explain it is to say that he left this world on a cloud of grace.

M y grandmother laughed and said, “Dawn really is the bringer of the light”. My grandmother passed away 2 days later, but my family was at peace.

I have experienced working with lots of individuals that are in the business of end-of-life care. The difference between them and Dawn is that they bring business to the table. She on the other hand, brings everything else!

I had the privilege of working with Dawn in the past. She is a blessing, and she does bring the light.
