Dawn, age 35, and her unborn son Quinn Matthew passed away Tuesday April 9th, 2002 due to complications from Leukemia. Throughout her life Dawn shared the special gifts that she was given…The gift of love and thoughtfulness shared in a million ways with her husband Richard and daughter Claire…The gift of a green thumb that flourished in her garden and spread to the gardens of others…The gift of exploration through travel with family and friends…The gift of friendship that she nurtured with hundreds of people…The gift of happiness and humor that filled her spirit…The gift of bringing out the best in others…not to mention the gifts of music, bargain hunting, celebrating, volunteering, and power napping!!

Dawn was a graduate of Seymour High School, St. Norbert College (BA), and University of Wisconsin Oshkosh (MBA). She worked for Schering Plough Corporation as a Pharmaceutical Sales Representative.

Dawn was born on September 2nd, 1966. Daughter of Fred and Pat Lindberg, Three Lakes, WI, wonderful wife of Richard, loving mother of Claire, sister of Eric (Beth) Lindberg and aunt to their children Brooke and Anna, White Bear Lake, MN, Sister of Kristin (Eric) Jungbluth, Shaker Heights, OH, daughter-in-law of Dave & Jane Petersen, Hudson, WI, sister-in law of Bob and Mary Petersen, Hudson, WI and aunt to their child Stacy.

This isn’t the place for every memory of Dawn. We will continually find them in our hearts, in our homes, in our gardens, in our thoughts, and in our prayers.
