Dwight was not only one of my best friends. He was my brother! He knew anytime he needed anything I would be there in a split second, and I knew the same thing about him. He lived with us on and off for several years, and him and Eric became unseperable. Noone or nothing can replace the gap I will now have in my life. Dwight made such a huge impact on not only me, but MANY MANY others. I love that boy way more than he could ever imagine! Granted, YES! Sometimes he annoyed the crap out of me, but it was always on purpose. He found it quite hilarious when I would get mad and yell at him! And somehow he was always the ONLY person that coucld make me smile when I would be so furious. I am a very very fortunate person to have known Dwight, and been so close to him. I would not be able to handle the loss of Dwight if it wasn't for knowing he's in heaven with our God right now. Dwight's been through a lot in his short life, and i've never seen him so happy, and peaceful as these last few weeks. New Beginnings Church has done way more than they could ever imagine! I can't wait until the day I get 2 see My Lil D-Wight again! I love you Bubba with ALL my heart and soul!

My family havd the priviledge of having Dwight as past of our family for many years. He always knew that our home was open to him and we were only a phone call away if he needed us. Dwight was such a special person. He had an infectious smile, a loving nature, respect for those deserving of it and unwavering loyalty to any person fortunate enough to be loved by him. Although Dwight's death is a tragic loss for those of us who loved him, I hope we all can take comfort in knowing that he loved the Lord and had very recently rededicated his life to Him. Even though I feel as if I have lost a son, Megan has lost a brother, and Eric has lost his brother and best friend, I know heaven has gained a special and precious angel. Doyle, we thank you and your family and for sharing your son with us. Dwight, we love you and will reuinte in heaven.

Dwight was a loved friend of mine; who, no matter what was going on, was by my side if i needed him. He had one of the purest hearts I've ever known and his smile would make you laugh no matter what kind of day you were having. Dwight was also very respectful and loyal. I am honored to have known him and to be considered one of his friends. He will be greatly missed but I know I'll see him again some day. His family and friends are in my prayers!!!

My heart goes out to your family for your loss. Dwight was such an amazing person and friend! We worked together and hung out alot for a while. He was always there to make me smile and laugh no matter how bad of a day I had or what I had going on. I love the picture you guys picked out for this because that is the sweet innocent look he would always give me to make me smile and I knew he was up to something!!
Sometimes we dont understand why things happen but just try to remember god has a plan for all of us and he is in a much better place now. If there is anything I can do for the family please let me know. I will keep you all in my prayers. I Love you Dwight and will always miss you!!!!

Dwight was such a wonderful person and we were blessed to have him as an "adopted" member of our family. He was the one of the most loyal and loving young men I have ever known. We can not imagine our world without him, but we know that he is in a better place. No doubt, in heaven, everyone will appreciate his very special spirit, loving nature, and the essence of the precious person he was. We love you, Dwight.
See you again some day!

My thoughts and prayers are with Dwight's family. I spent a lot of time with Dwight. I was his 4-H leader and friend , we went all over showing cows something Dwught loved. These memories are priceless to me. I also know that Dwight loved the Lord and found peace with him. Just the Saturday before this terrible tragedy I was blessed with spending the day with Dwight, we talked about Jesus as we had many times before and shared our love for him. We also had a fun day,for it had been a while since I had seen Dwight and God Blessed me with this day knowing what the future would hold . I will truly miss Dwight's smiling face but am thankful to be blessed by our friendship that ended too soon.... with love Kay Barnett-Casey
