Dwayne, my family Who would have thought that the photo we took together just four weeks ago at our cousin's birthday would be our last? I'm so glad Chloe' asked me to take it. You were the spitting image of your dad, and you had the warmest, most beautiful smile. It's hard to believe you're gone. You'll be deeply missed by everyone who loved you. However, I find some peace in knowing that you're now reunited with your father. Rest easy, Dwayne. We'll carry your memory with us, always. Love cousin Darlene, Chloe' Chat, and Rae
