Thank you for sharing your memories of Dawnita with us Gary.

Truly touching.

“We were all totally exhausted by morning but the one that recovered the quickest and brought a smile back to the rest of us was Dawnita. She had lots of capacity to love and didnâ€™t seem to have any capacity to think bad thoughts or retain bad memories.”

If only we could all be as strong as Dawnita.

Thanks again.

Wow, that is such a great tribute to a very special angel indeed. I have been to several of those places you wrote about and am glad you all were there as a family. Talk about an example of unconditional love, we should all be so fortunate to have a Dawnita in our lives. My thoughts are with you all.

Well, that made me cry. What a beautifully written tribute to your daughter and to your whole family really. I know it couldn’t have been easy to write, but thank you for sharing it with us.

Thank you each and everyone for sharing you hearts, This was what Dawnita was all about. We are caught between ‘letting go” and ‘keeping her memory alive’ and I’m sure this will sort its self out. A special thanks to you and others like you Eagle Eyes who have choosen the profession you have – you make a difference. And Phillip, I’d love to hear more of your special child – they indeed can be a real blessing. Thanks again all, it meant a lot to know Dawnita’s life is still speaking and sharing.

thank you for sharing this story and your memories of your beautiful daughter. It is obvious that she was greatly loved by the whole family and I’m sure she is also greatly missed. I’m thankful that you and your wife had the courage to let her live and experience all the things many would have kept her sheltered from.

Well, let me say first of all that I was unable to respond immediately after reading this well done piece. There were tears running down Ol’ Eagles Eyes cheeks. I had to rest a little and get back some composure before I could post. You see, you were blessed by an angel and now that angel has touched each and everyone who reads this piece. Thank you so much for sharing Dawnita with the rest of us. I have spent (33) years in the profession of working with developmentally disabled adults. I am blessed everyday by these angels. I would have never wanted it any other way. Higher paying jobs and more prestige trips up some folks, but, I have brushed them all aside for time with folks like Dawnita. God bless you, my friend.
