To the family of Mr. Gay, we were coworkers at Petersburg Area Transit but we were also good friends. He was always offering up some encouraging words, spoke his mind when needed but lived life to its fullest. Although no words can be spoken to fill the void he will leave here on earth, the joy of knowing one day we all will be reunited. In the coming days as the grief turns to healing I pray that you find comfort in the many years of memories that not even death can take away.

My sincere condolences to Dwight's family and friends.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.
