Dawn Michelle Moorhead

On Friday, December 25, 2020, Dawn Michelle Moorhead loving mother of two children, gained her angel wings at age 34. Dawn was born on September 9, 1986 in Salisbury, Maryland to Roger and Debbie Townsend. Dawn never met a stranger. She loved everyone no matter who you were. She was the most loving, caring, and sassy person who wore her big heart on her sleeve. When she smiled her bright blue eyes and her signature dimples would light up a room. Her love of her family and friends and life, especially her father, who she cherished very much made her one of the most selfless loving and caring individuals anyone had ever met. Her favorite things in life were her family and friends. She loved watching her son Landon soar through his academics and watching his smile and loving spirit light up a room. She loved watching Christian play baseball with a competitive spirit and develop his love of hunting and fishing. Dawn always put family first and always went above and beyond to make sure everyone was taken care of. Dawn was preceded in death by her maternal grandparents, Reginald T. Wingate, Sr. and Joann Wingate, Hilda Wingate (bonus grandmother) and her paternal grandparents, Frances and Ella Townsend. She is survived by her two sons that were the light of her life, Landon Moorhead(13) and Christian Moorhead(9), her boyfriend, Wes Bailey, parents, Roger and Debbie Townsend, brother, Roger Lee Townsend (Nicole), sister, Tracy Seitz (Greg), uncle, Reggie Wingate, aunts, Pamela Carey (Tony), Karen Gass (Ted), Claude Townsend (Pat), as well as nieces and nephews, Shawn Townsend (Liz), Sarah Lewis (Zach), Miranda Jones (Hunter), Katlyn Seitz (Devin Willey), her great nephews, MJ Lewis, Levi Townsend, Ryder Lewis, and Walker Jones.
