Today we lost a MENA jewel

[~Jackie~ 30]

My heart is breaking from grief as I type this. Our Dawn (dawnhatem) was killed this morning in a car accident.

There is a story on the Chicago Tribune's website. I have no words to say right now I can only cry and wish she was still here. Kelly and Sofyan will tell us when the wake and funeral are. If anyone would like to help me send a bouquet of flowers, let me know and we can sign it from her VJ family.

I don't think Hatem will ever see this thread of condolences, but I just want him and his family to know that we care.

greiving,

Jackie

As I sit here with tears streaming down my face, I think of the many many conversations Dawn and I had together. She Is going to be very much missed but never forgotten.

Dawn, I miss you already

I will contribute to the boquet.

The tears just won't stop. Dawn, you were such a wonderful and strong woman whose life was cut way too short. You will be missed greatly.

Count me in on the bouquet.
