Dawn F. Mazur, age 59, of Huntingburg
Dawn F. Mazur, age 59, of Huntingburg, Indiana, passed away unexpectedly at 12:19 p.m. on Wednesday, September 2, 2020, at Memorial Hospital and Health Care Center in Jasper.
Dawn was born in Port Huron, Michigan on February 23, 1961. She married Michael Mazur on August 27, 1994, in Ludington, Michigan.

She was passionate about community journalism which spanned a 37-year career. She spent the last 28 years as an editor at The Herald in Jasper, Indiana.

Dawn was a bright spot; always seeing the good in people and looking on the bright side. She would always say, "why can't we just get along with one another?" She would laser focus on any task she was performing.
She enjoyed traveling with her husband, crafting, baking, working on remodeling her home in Huntingburg and playing euchre with friends. She loved her dogs through the years: Tramper, Snowball, Charlie and Annie.
