Dawn Crater Bult was born on July 8, 1965, in Mitchell, SD to John and Alice (Gaulke) Crater. She graduated from Mitchell Senior High. After high school, she continued her education at South Dakota State University in Brookings, SD where she received her bachelor’s degree.

Dawn was outgoing, friendly, and had a great sense of humor. She had a laugh you could hear from miles away and a positive outlook on life that reflected in her work. She enjoyed spending time with her family, her granddaughter, traveling, and attending her nephew’s baseball games. Dawn had a soft spot in her heart for animals and she made sure she didn’t live life without one in her home. Dawn made everyone in her life feel important, and you were always guaranteed a hug.

Dawn’s hobbies included bowling, which she enjoyed doing with her husband, Curtis and planting flowers and gardening.

Grateful for having shared in her life are her husband, Curtis Bult; daughter, Kaylynn (Justin) Stark; granddaughter, Anya Wee; mother, Alice Crater; brother, Barry (Patty) Crater; and her nephews, Michael Crater and Bennett Crater.

Dawn is preceded in death by her son, Dustin Wee and father, John Crater.

In lieu of flowers, please contribute to the memorial fund which will be used to assist with unexpected expenses.

I am related to Dawn through the Onken side of the family and do our family genealogy. I would not have known of Dawnâ€™s passing had I not been purusing on FB today. She was kind enough to send me some pictures and facts. My sincerest condolences to all of the family.

I didn't realize till today that Dawn had passed away. So sad to hear this, Dawn was a wonderful lady. We worked together at Lifequest. She was a great advocate for the people we served. My thoughts and prayers are with her family!

I am so sorry for your loss, dear family. Dawn was just screening me at Avera Brady as I was visiting my mother and aunt so I am shocked that she is no longer with us. Always appreciated her easy laugh and ready smile. She will be missed, and remembered by many who knew and loved her. God bless and comfort your family.

I was so shocked to hear of your passing. You will be missed so much. We met at the Hampton Inn working together but became closer afterwards and even more so when I found out my husband has the same illness that yours has. You were such a great support group for us and my heart just breaks knowing that you are no longer with us. We will miss you so much. :( RIP

My deepest condolences for Dawn's family, and friends. I met Dawn through a mutual friend. Dawn was known to have a love of life, her children and grand children were her pride and joy. She cherished her special love Curt. She enjoyed a good joke with friends and valued her co- workers. She was a true friend and had a heart of gold. She will be sadly missed.
