Condolences02-22-2010 Nada, I am not sure if you will get this message since I am posting it so late. I just want you to know how very special your mother was to me and my kids. We don't have family nearby but we felt like we had a grandmother here because Mrs Dawson treated us like family. She has a very special place in my heart. I know you will miss her terribly and I pray for God's comfort for you. We're probably not supposed to have favorites, but Sophia and I always looked forward to when it was time to deliver Mrs Dawson's meal! : ) She spoke of you often. I was so blessed to know her.
