It’s been very difficult to put into words the impact Dawn had on me and everyone around her over the last 20 years.  She was not just a colleague but a best friend and I miss her greatly – the void she has left is immense.  Dawn was one of the kindest, funniest and most generous people I know, with a passion for living life to the full and someone who made time for you no matter how busy she was.

We had such great fun over the years – she was always organising the next breakfast, lunch or night out, but she was also someone to go to for advice and some positive thinking.  She loved buying us all little surprises – mainly chocolate (!), but I also remember fondly the little goodie bags with words of wisdom, rubber ducks, mini staplers, and stress balls, to name but a few.

I miss her texts, photos and endless chats over a coffee – Dawn will always hold a special place in my heart and I will cherish the amazing memories I have of her.

Rest in peace Dawn, KK xx
