Dawn Murphy

Dawn Marie Murphy (Carroll), 46 On December 5, 2016 at 7:29 AM, Dawn Marie was whisked away by Angels to be with God. She was the devoted wife of Michael Murphy, Jr. of over 15 years, and a loving mother to five wonderful children ages 8 to 25. Born and raised in Orange County, CA, Dawn was the daughter of Evan Carroll and DelRae Hudson. Dawn graduated in 1988 from Valley High School where she was a cheerleader. She was also recognized for her stellar acting and artistic abilities, winning multiple awards, and earning a scholarship to the Institute of Art. Dawn attended OCC, choosing a different path, and worked as a Pharmacy Technician for Longs/CVS for over 16 years. Last year, they had moved from Tarzana to Hemet, to be closer to family. Dawn enjoyed spending time with her family and friends, baking, playing slots at the local Casino, spending long days at the beach with her kids, singing, dancing, drawing, writing poetry and socializing on Facebook. She was also a mentor for those struggling with addictions, holding over 17 years of sobriety. Dawn was known for her beautiful smile, larger than life personality and kind heart. She was especially known for her affectious spirit - hugging and kissing all those in her path. Dawn is survived by her husband Michael, her five children Charleen (8), Marcus (10), Malachi (14), Seth (20) and Samantha (25). She also leaves behind her parents Evan and DelRae, Stepdad Mike, Grandmother Charleen (89), Grandmother Geri (86) and siblings Christina, Liberty, James, Holley, Michelle, Lindsi, Brianne, and Brit. She is predeceased by her brother Evan, her Grandfather Robert, and her Grandfather Evan. Dawn also departs from adoring aunts, uncles, cousins, nephews and nieces, and hundreds of other people who loved her like family.
