Dawn Renee Silvers past away suddenly on Thursday, May 29, 2008. Dawn was born on October 15, 1965 in Dayton, Ohio, but spent most of
her life in the Florida Keys. She was a very selfless person, always
putting the needs of others before her own. She was a very proud
mother, a devoted fiancee, a loyal friend and will be missed by the
many lives she has touched.
She was a proud member of the Vineyard Community Church and the
church's women's group; an avid runner, and a successful masseuse. She
enjoyed spending time with her fiancee, Roy, and their cats; gardening,
taking photos, cooking, entertaining family and friends, and
volunteering.
She is preceded in death by her fathers, Harry Silvers and Walter Oatley; maternal
grandparents, Hollis and Ann McLaughlin; and paternal grandfather, Roy
Silvers.
She is survived by her beautiful children, Jordan Taylor and Sophia
Renee; best friend and fiancé, Roy Payne; mother Pat Silvers,
grandmother Ada Silvers, brother Rodney Silvers, sister Theresa
Bateman, brother Todd (Danette) Silvers, sister Tiffany O'Connell, aunt
Kathy (Bryant) Mangum, and her niece, nephews and cousins.
She is also survived by her extended families: the Payne family, Joe
and Meri-Lynn Britz, the Vineyard Community Church, and Bill W's
family.
