Still miss you Dewayne. I'm sure I will continue to miss you for a long time to come. You were an important part of my life for the last couple of years.....I never imagined you would not be there. I guess it's an important lesson not to take anyone for granted because none of us knows what the future holds. Like I once heard a preacher say, no one is promised another day and Dewayne is proof. I hope he's at peace and happy. I will miss you and think of you often and remember you fondly and with love for the rest of my life. If I could go back and change things I would and just maybe things might be different but no one will ever know for sure. I will cherish my memories of the brief but meaningful time I had with you.
RIP Dewayne.....I hope we will meet again someday on the other side.

I don't know what to say. I'm in such shock. I knew Dewayne for about the last 2 1/2 years. I really was wild about him. He was always very sweet to me. I visited him a lot at his house. We had lots of long conversations. I know he loved his family very much. He talked about all of you all the time. I had not heard from him for a while and started trying to call. I couldn't get an answer so I went by and could tell he wasn't there. I was hoping he had moved back to Arlington as he had talked about doing from time to time. I don't know why but I looked in the obituaries and there it was. I didn't expect to see it or want to see it. It's been about 3 hours and I still don't want to believe it. I wish I would have had the opportunity to tell him good bye. He was a real sweetheart and made me feel special
I will never forget him... To his Mom...Dad....Sister and everyone else.
. I'm so sorry. He was truly one of a kind and a special special guy who will always have a big place in my heart. I miss him already. I'm so glad he was in my life if only for a short while.

The song is ended, but the melody lingers on, just like Dwayne's smile! A kind gentle soul and just gone way to soon. To joann and family, I'm so sorry to hear about Dwayne.May God give you peace during this difficult time. Dwayne was my brother n law, and mike kindley and I were married and lived next door to Dwayne and Laura! He never said much, just always smiling!

I will never forget how every time I saw you, you're face lit up. You'd always ask me how 'ole snuffy (my dad) was doing. And when I was little make me listen to all you're favorite songs. I'll always remember the times you'd call and we would talk for at least half an hour, it wasn't as often as it should've been but I know, you know how much I loved you and still love you with all my heart. Every time I make an omelette or hear an old song on the radio, I know you'll be right there with me jamming out or coaching me how to flip the eggs just right lol I still don't think I'll ever get it just right like you did. You were everything an uncle could be, you loved me just like your own. And I'll take that love with me forever. I love you so much and please watch over all of us down on earth, I know you're in a very happy place and may God forever give us signs that you're near. Rest in peace uncle bub.

Tonight our hearts are saddened at the loss of our precious nephew, Dewayne. Words just cannot express the feelings in our hearts and the things that we really desire to say. Tho his death seems so untimely it is a perfect example that God holds our lives in His hands and in His time we leave our earthly bodies to go live with Him forever. We take comfort in believing that Dewayne is rejoicing in heaven with his beloved Grandma Stone and others that have gone on before him. No longer do the things that restricted him on earth bother him in heaven. He can walk about in total freedom and relieve from the cares of this life. We pray for the family that he left behind, his Mom Joanne and step Dad Rod, his Dad Jo, his sister Carmen and brother in law Leon, his niece Kendal and many other family and friends. May God give all of you strength in the days weeks and years to come.

Dearest Dewayne, is Heaven anything like we imagined it would be? You and I was married only 4 short years but just as love found us, so did tragedy, loss, and pain. We were both too young to handle the grown up problems that life was throwing at us. I have fond memories of you and I, all things considered....I think we did a great job! Valentines Day 1988, I stood before God and Family and swore to love you for the rest of your life....I still do! Watch over your Mom, Dad, Sister, and Niece. We will leave this world loving and missing you! Until we meet again....
