To my cousin, who awaits us in the sky.
 We know many of loved ones do not have a dry eye.
We will miss you as you leave this earthly land.
We know Dear that you are in grander hands.
 For I know, I have a vision so clear
 that family on the other side is hugging you near.
 Your pap, your nanna, your cousin, your aunt, my brother,
 ooooo and so many more.
I wish we could see eternity
 so our hearts and minds could see
the grand reunion that is in store for you.
Our hearts selfishly want to keep you here...
however Dear Lord, Dear Dawn....
we shall see you every day with the rise of the sun..a new Dawn.
Your favorite spot, the ocean, is where we see the biggest sun rise
 because it shows on the horizon...a new dawn...
Dear cousin...you were named appropriately after lifes miracle.
 A new day, a new Dawn...everytime we hear those words..
we shall bittersweetly think of you...
red hair like the flaming of the sun,
 fighting spirit like a storm at see...
how did your parents know when they first gave you a name
 that you would forever remind us of HOPE
 in a new day that starts at Dawn...
We will miss you...so many will smile at your arrival on the other side...
Love to your family, friends, let them gather together to lift each other up.

All my love and care,
