Dawson Louis Baroh was born on May 22, 1996 in Kirkland, WA to parents Sanford
and Michelle Baroh. He was raised in Snohomish by his parents with his older sister,
Carly, and younger brother, Riley.
Dawson attended grade and middle school in Snohomish where he played Little
League Baseball and practiced Jiu-Jitsu. During his youth he loved large equipment:
trucks, tractors, loaders, anything that was big and had wheels. His parents used to
take him to "Touch a Truck" days that were held by the city of Snohomish at the
Public Works Department. Heaven! Then, during 2010, he spent the summer with
his Aunt Trish and Uncle Lance Juedeman on their farm in Geraldine, Montana and
the mold was set.
Dawson's parents, along with his aunt and uncle, collectively decided that his
education would be better served in a smaller environment. With a class size of four
students, the change worked beautifully for Dawson. He made the honor roll, played
football, basketball, and worked summers – driving Trucks! – on the Juedeman Farm.
He graduated from Geraldine High School in 2015.
Dawson attended college at Montana State University Northern in Havre and
attained an associate's degree in Ag Mechanics; he graduated in 2017.
Because Dawson's childhood love of trucks wasn't a fickle one, he carried the
passion into adulthood. After college, he started the first of several adventures in the
trucking industry. He hauled cattle, grain, hay, (really, almost anything) around
Montana and the Western states. He also spent a year hauling Fracking Sand in West
Virginia. His trucking company was called Flat Top Logistics.
Most recently, Dawson returned to the Juedeman Farm, re-joining the team that was
most dear to his heart. He was killed in a farming accident on the farm on Monday,
April 29th. He leaves behind his parents, Sandy and Michelle; his sister, Carly and
her daughter, Gia; his brother Riley, his sister-in-law Kendall, and their daughter
June; his grandmother Doris Muller; his Aunt Trish and Uncle Lance, and their
family, Blaine and Darcey Juedeman and their children Lily, Aubrey, Dean, and Skyler,
and Elaina (Juedeman) Antonich and her husband Owen and their children Charlotte
and Warner, and Grandma Jo (fondly referred to as GJo). Dawson also leaves behind
his step-grandma Jane Iten, numerous aunts and uncles, cousins and kin from both
families, and hundreds of Trucking Buddies from all over the United States. Last, but
certainly not least, his ever-present four-legged companion, Bandit.
Dawson had a heart of gold, and we are all immensely sad to see his journey diverge
from our own so soon, but we also feel so incredibly lucky to have been a part of his
life; he truly was, and always will be, one of the best.
