Growing up next to Fawn and the kids for many years, I have many fond memories. I especially remember when we all would have a cook out at the lake or everyone in the neighborhood at their own places, but all us kids running from one house to the next. Fawn was an awesome woman that will be remembered as such! My condolences to the family💌💞

Fawn was my neighbor in Monroe for a few years. What a wonderful neighbor she was, too. Always kind with a very sweet personality. My prayers for peace, and comfort to her three kids, her grandson, her brothers and also to her best friend, Nancy, who I know already misses her terribly. RIP sweet lady.❤️

Fawn was one of a kind with such a big heart and so much understanding towards others. Sending my deepest condolences to the family who she loved so so much and always spoke positively about. Mr. Bean will be "talking" and asking for her as he was a talker and a fetcher. Hope you all can find comfort in the good memories you have with her. Sincerely, Michelle Weidner
