Not sure what to say?

Dwayne cut my hair in the 80s until I moved away from Lincoln. I have never had anyone who could come close to cutting my hair like he did. It was always fun to go in for an appointment. He was so upbeat and positive. I remember how proud he was of his children. Rest in peace Dwayne.

Dwayne took our family from first haircuts for our boys, thru military "high & tights", and on into the "only your hairdresser knows" visits... ALWAYS with his dynamite, outgoing personality, kindness, and expertise! You were loved by so many and you are missed!

Dwayne was a great friend and an excellent barber for more than 40 years. He gave both our kids their first haircut. We had the best conversations. We will miss you Dwayne! Rest in peace.

I served in Vietnam with Dwayne, 1st Platoon, A Co., 2/22 Inf. Mechanized, U.S. 25th Infantry Division. He was a buddy and a heck of a good soldier. No matter what was thrown his way, he met it head on, never complaining. He always got along with everyone. He is standing center (with the red hair) in the photo. We reconnected at a reunion in 2014 and stayed in touch. It's hard to lose another Vietnam brother. RIP Dwayne and God Speed.

Dwayne was a very good friend and SUPER BARBER. NOBODY could cut my hair like Dwayne. He was ALWAYS POSITIVE on Life and I Never saw him having an Off Day. I will miss His Friendship but most of all His Barbering Hair Cuts. The Good Lord TooK the Best of the Best Home... A Army Veteran, Husband, Father, Barber but most a all... A TRUE FRIEND of LIFE...

So sad to hear about Dwayne He loved to be a barber and I looked forward to visiting him regularly. His stories about family, specifically his grandkids were very special. I also loved hearing about his Army service and ongoing travel to get together with his unit. Hey was one of a kind, and I miss him. God speed.
