Dear Uncle Dwayne,
I know you're in a better place. The Lord is right beside you right now. I can't wait to see the streets of gold with you. I love you. Of course I'll miss you dearly but I know you wouldn't want to be here back on earth with your pain and suffering. So this isn't a goodbye, it is a hello because I think you're sitting beside me reading this. I love you.

I can remember when Uncle Hugh taught Dwayne about taxidermy, and I know he treasured sharing his knowledge with his grandson. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Love to all of you, Susan

I was deeply saddened to hear of Dwayne's passing. I'll always remember going fishing with Dwayne, riding in his Chevy Nova listening to Lynyrd Skynyrd. Dwayne was always laughing and made us all laugh. My deepest sympathy, Brian.
