Life is nurtured by our drinking of water just as all life from this stream. “Indizhikaaz mukua Bewsa” I was allowed to be nurtured by my mother’s waters and so many others. She was loved MORE than I can count by so many.  She will be remembered for her contributions to the arts and native culture, and all those left to love and cherish her memories.  Mother, we know you’re on your own time, but we await you.  We can almost hear the thunder from the ride, we know it is getting close to bringing you home…. LET THEM ALL HEAR YOUR RIDE!!

Those greeting Dawn in the spirit world are her parents, Ronald Brown Sr. and Barbara (Johnson) Brown; siblings, Don and Mary Brown.

Those left behind to cherish her memories are her mother, Laurie Carlson; sons, James and William; grandchildren, Harper, Haidyn, Hailey, and the grandson she has yet to meet.
