May God bless you and your family at this time. We loved Dwayne as the Christian he really was. Nobody could testify or quote scriptures like he could. We will miss him but we also know that Heaven is now a better place for him.

Dear Jean & Family,

Our deepest sympathy and prayers are with you in the passing of Dwayne. We will miss his presence in church, at all the SKIT activities, etc. We will miss hearing him testify and quote the scripture. God bless each of you with comfort and peace. We are so sorry that we are not able to be with you at this time since we are out of town but our thoughts and prayers are with you.



Love, Frank & Marge
