Dwight was a very dear person. Didn't get to see him much in recent years, but he never failed to stop and talk when we did meet. I thought the world of him and his family can certainly be proud of the man he became. My sympathies to the family. Lareen Lozica Daniels

I worked with Dwight father at the Sun Journal I was always impressed how they bonded as a family. They were mirrored images of each other always laughing and smiling.Thanks for the good times. May you both Rest In Peace and receive your heavenly rewards.
My deepest condolences to you and your family.
Dwight you were one of the kindest and caring person. You were always smiling and so thoughtful. I remember when you walked over to my house one day when I was mowing my lawn. You told me you were so sorry to hear about my husband passing. You told me that if I ever needed any help with anything you would be glad to help. I told you I appreciated that but I would be alright. About 25 minutes later I heard something, I looked back and you were on your riding mower mowing another section of my lawn.You don't find many special people like him any more. That meant so much to me. I will miss him riding by my house blowing the horn, smiling that contagious smile and waving! He was a wonderful neighbor and friend and one of a kind generous and loving soul.. Rest in peace my friend. Praying for comfort and strength for the family.
Dwight, I only knew you a short amount of time, but you were a great gentleman and always showed the upmost respect for everyone. Fly high dear friend. Tell Jerry I miss him and dance with your mother and father
He was a great and wonderful person that could make anyone smile.Will be missed by many people.May prayers be with his family at this difficult time'
Never net a more radiant person with a heart of pure preciousness. A person that lit up any room with happiness or filled their hearts with compassion and concern. He held no boundaries of race, gender, social status, or any differences of the world's ways of the present times we face. Can't say enough good about Dwight! A brother that deserves heaven for sure !!!!!!

Always a genuinely sweet person everytime I seen him. Prayers for family and friends during this difficult time. π
Dwight was a true gentleman, friend, and had a good soul. He would take the time to help anyone, without any expectations of anything in return. He often said, his parents said it was just the right way to do things. We've spent many hours talking, laughing, venting and I will miss my friend each and every day! Dwight, I know you are at peace and with your parents, and looking down knowing we love and miss you.
What a sweet person he was. One of the kindest gentlemen ever. He will be greatly missed. Prayers for his family at this difficult time.
Very hard to believe you are gone!! May you rest in peace!! The entire Speedway Team will surely miss you! Thoughts and prayers for you and your family
My thoughts and prayers for the family. Tireman will be greatly missed!
Dwight was just naturally a person you would love. He was kind and gentle. He had a huge concept of family and what that meant. I didn't see him often but he was a cousin that when he said I love you, you knew he meant it. I'll miss that larger than life smile. When God calls all home to be with Him in glory, I have no doubt Dwight's star will shine among the brightest. Until then, rest easy cuz...much love π
