For the Benefit of Patrick Dawson's Children

In loving memory of our beloved, Patrick Dawson who left us too soon. He never met a stranger and was always the brightest light in any room.

Patrick catapulted into this world on December 31st, 1984 like an asteroid breaking through the atmosphere. Unapologetic, authentic, loud, courageous, present, intelligent, and kind. His love for people and thirst for freedom and fun was contagious. His infectious personality was a gift that brought so many individuals together. He was an alien. A beautiful expression of the self.

That is why his tragic untimely exit on November 2nd, 2023 at 38 years of age, has left such a void once filled by the imprint he left in our hearts. His sudden passing has created a deficit in the lives of his greatest assets, his children, Aspen (8) King (6) Cairo (4).

After receiving many requests to donate to the children who were left with only his precious memory. Family and friends have decided to create a memorial donation page so that the proceeds can go directly towards any financial strain the immediate family may encounter while navigating these difficult times.

All proceeds contributed will go towards supporting Aspen, King, and Cairo with future education expenses, child care, medical expenses, or deposited into a savings account. Any contribution whether monetary or through prayer is deeply appreciated!

Patrick, if you truly knew how deeply you were loved and always be missed! May your spirit guide us all through this realm till we can all be together again!

He is survived by his children Aspen, Kingston, and Cairo Dawson, their mother and his former wife, Tiffany Rodriguez Dawson, and his parents, Devony and Michael Dawson. His grandparents, Bonnie Edwards and Ken and Beverly Edwards. He was pre-deceased by his grandparents Ruth and Robert Dawson. His younger brother and sister, Lucas Dawson and Hannah Grace Colina (Andres), also survived him.

He leaves his cousins, Damian Patrinostro, Judah Otero, Brenton Davis and Teedi Herring-Phillips. His uncles Esteban Otero, Paul Edwards, and John Herring. His aunts, Leanne Otero, Judy Davis, Pastor Lynn Herring. His nieces and nephews, Adalia and Rafael Colina and Kailen, Kathy, and Ronny Tomasetti Jr. And friends and co-workers beyond counting.

There will be a Celebration of life open to all who knew and loved Patrick Dawson. It will be held on December 1st, 2023 at 4 pm at Casa Ola Retreat on the River, 7710 N. Ola Avenue, Tampa, FL 33604
