Son of Patrick and Eunie(Smith) Dawson. They owned the store in the town of Dresden,Tennesse. He went to Dresden High School, and college in Anderson, Indiana. He went to his 60th class reunion and tongue in cheek said they where all older. He always had a smile.
All he ever wanted to be was a farmer. He became a great Father,to Ed and Tom. Husband, to Edna(Rawlings) and Uncle.
For work he always worked as a machinist,working 10 hours a day, but always he wanted to be a farmer. He did try it too, after 10 hours at his job he would farm for several hours of hard work.
He was a Sunday school teacher. I sometimes would drive 300 miles to see them and on Sundays go to church.
Moving his family from Indiana to the Fresno area. One of the greatest men I ever had the opportunity to meet, I called him Uncle and friend. He was a giant of a man,(over 6 foot 4) both in spirit, heart and in size.
We still miss him a lot. The obituary says he left behind 3 brothers. Paul Dawson of St.Louis, Major Dawson of Michigan, and a sister Naomi Robertson of Chicago.
