Hi Dwayne:
I always chatted with you when I came to Perkins Restaurant
You always said "Hi trouble" to me in a joking way when you saw me when I came into Restaurant. I will always remember what a friendly, nice person you were.
You are gone far too soon!

It is hard to believe you are gone Dwayne. I always said you were my favorite son-in-law and then followed it up with "that's right you are my only son-in-law:)
Michelle, you have proven to be stronger than you thought and will continue on through your strength and yours and Dwaynes love. Dwayne will be in yours, Michaels and our hearts forever. Love Mom, Gene, Cammarie(Dylan) and kids

Dwayne was a wonderfully kind man. I was a customer of his at Perkins and even though he was a whirlwind of activity every day, he always took time to chat and make me (and so many others) feel welcome when they walked through the door. Rest in peace, dear friend.
