Sent a Full Of Love Bouquet to the Holley family.
Laura Palacios Diossa
Dawn Louise Holley was the kind of person who carried light with her wherever she went. Young, vibrant, and full of life, she embraced every moment with a fearless, adventurous spirit. A triathlete and an athlete in every sense, she showed strength not only in her body, but in her heart—always pushing forward, always uplifting others. She was beautiful, not just in appearance, but in the way she lived, the way she gave, and the way she loved.
Though distance meant we didn’t share as much time together as we would have liked, her presence was always felt. From Israel to San Francisco, she lived a life of purpose—serving others, helping the homeless, and dedicating herself to her faith and community. She had a rare and genuine compassion, the kind that made people feel seen, valued, and cared for. She truly was a beautiful soul.
Three years ago, Dawn and her uncle helped bring our family closer by starting a family union—a reflection of how deeply she valued connection, love, and togetherness. Last year, she made sure to plan everything with care and intention, creating moments that will now be cherished memories for all of us. That was who she was—someone who brought people together and made sure no one felt alone.
This past year has brought unimaginable loss, with the passing of her mother and brother, and now Dawn as well. It is difficult to comprehend, and even harder to accept. Yet even in the midst of this sorrow, her spirit remains unforgettable—her joy, her laughter, her warmth, and her unwavering positivity. She had a way of seeing the good in life and inviting others to see it too.
She will be deeply missed—not only for who she was, but for how she made others feel. Her legacy lives on in the lives she touched, the kindness she shared, and the love she gave so freely. Though she is no longer with us, her light continues to shine in all who were fortunate enough to know her.
May she rest in peace, reunited with her loved ones, and may her memory forever be a blessing. Dawnie sweetie you will be in our hearts. All my Love, Laura Diossa and family
