Dawn E. White, 89, of North Syracuse, went home to be with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, surrounded by her family on December 21, 2023, in her home that she loved for 65 years.
Dawn married the love of her life, Cliff, on June 21, 1958. She worked as a nurse at a number of hospitals including Memorial (Crouse) and St. Mary's in Syracuse, but her favorite career was being a wife, mother and homemaker. Dawn and Cliff's love of children led them to become foster parents to 14 foster babies for what is now New Hope Family Services. Dawn was an active member of North Syracuse Baptist Church @ TGP.
Dawn was predeceased by her husband of 51 years, Cliff; parents, Charles and Marguerite Davis; brother, Carl Davis and sister, Bev Sullivan.
She is survived by four daughters, Vicki (Jon) Arthur, Cindy (Chris) Graham, Wendy (Donnie) Tinsch and Shelly (Chris) Goguen; grandchildren, Tim Arthur, David (Ashley) Graham, Katie (Mike) Mundt and Carrie (Adam) Graham, Ben, Kaylee, Kristin and Holly Tinsch, Natalie, Matthew and Joshua Goguen; great-grandchildren, Jameson Arthur, Jacob and Violet Mundt, and a niece and nephew.
A Memorial Service will be held at The Gathering Place (NSBC), 420 S. Main St., N. Syracuse, at 11 a.m. on Friday, January 26, 2024.
