Rest in Peace Dwight. You were a lot older than me but always took the time to teach your younger cousin the finer aspects of playing Monopoly. I was always glad you, Bob and Phil were a part of our growing up in Osceola. I loved Uncle PD and Aunt Helen very much and have so many fond memories.
RIP Dwight.
I was proud to be your pledge brother and , ultimately, your fraternity brother. You will be fondly remembered. RIP
Dwight:
I never had the pleasure of meeting you, but over the last few days I have learned enough about you through our brothers in ZAX to know you were loved by all.
In the not so distance future I will meet you on the other side. I look forward to that.
Rest in peace, Dwight.
Think you were a very good Lambda Chi brother. I am sure you are in a much better place today - RIP.
Dwight and family, As a fellow classmate from first grade thru high school graduation in Osceola, and later as a fraternity brother at the U of A, I want you to know how much your friendship and loyalty was appreciated. In addition, the fun and games we shared in City League and Little League baseball, as well as jr high and high school football and track, are cherished memories. I also want you to know how much I admired you as a person. I could always count on you being there for me when asked. I also greatly admired your intellect, which was prodigious!! Rest in peace my friend. You will be sorely missed.
RIP Birdman - in ZAX
