HALLOCK, Dawn, Marie, age 49, of Kettering, passed away Tuesday, January 21, 2020. Dawn was born April 8, 1970 to Richard and Sue (Huss) Ciesa. She graduated from Alter High School and attended Sinclair Community College, where she studied fashion design.

Dawn loved animals of all types. She was also an athlete, playing and coaching softball. A hockey fan, she rooted for the Red Wings. Dawn was passionately involved with the Girl Scouts. She was an avid fan of Gilmore Girls, Disney and action movies. She enjoyed travel and was able to travel with Jake throughout the country from New York to Los Angeles to Florida.

She had a retail career at Meijer, then Aldi. A talented artist, Dawn was co-owner of DaJaView Photography with her husband and enjoyed photographing weddings.

Her greatest love was family. It didn’t matter if you were blood family or not. She took particular delight interacting with children. Nieces, nephews, cousins and any baby or child would capture her attention and bring a smile to her face. She loved them all, whether they were family or a passing baby in the grocery store.

She is survived by her loving husband of 17 years, Jacob; children Danielle (Joshua) Carl, Ethan Hallock, Savanah Hallock; granddaughter Loralie Carl; brothers, Michael and Gregory Ciesa; sister, Pamela Thompson and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and very dear friends.
