Dwayne was born May 24, 1961, at RAF Mildenhall, England to Gloria and Roger Davis of Carlsbad, N.M. He graduated from Bitburg Air Base High School, Bitburg, Germany in 1979. He then attended Eastern New Mexico University for one year and recently completed two online courses to further his education. Dwayne worked at numerous vocations in Los Alamos, Espanola, Santa Fe and Carlsbad.
Dwayne was very mechanically inclined and could fix most anything with an engine as well as most copiers and printers. In recent years he developed two hobbies, model airplanes and model rockets, hand-building most of his rockets. The greatest joy of his life was being with his daughters and grandchildren.
Dwayne is survived by two daughters, Deaubry Dubois and Danielle Gorham; two granddaughters, Athaya Dubois and Jessica Gorham and one grandson, Daysek Dubois, all of Albuquerque, N.M. He is also survived by his grandmother Ruby Davis and parents, Roger and Gloria Davis of Carlsbad; sister Dawn Davis of Albuquerque and brother and sister-in-law Darrell and Deanna Davis of Wasilla, Alaska, plus 3 nieces and one nephew.
