Whitewater rafting!

Dwight was an adventurous and kind person. We had fun together. We took a road trip through the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone National Park years ago. I remember going whitewater rafting years before that. Such memories to carry on. Dwight will be missed.

Dwight was a true gentleman. His hearty laugh would resonate throughout our office. He had a simple and relaxed outlook on life and seemed to love a simple and relaxed style of life. I will miss him!
