He was born on November 8, 1946, in Seneca, Kansas.
Dwight served in the army during the Cold War in Germany and continued to be a patriot thru his life. He worked in maintenance for National Beef for many years. He enjoyed fishing, he was a motorcycle enthusiast and owned a Gold Wing Motorcycle. Dwight was a great storyteller who shared his knowledge of random facts. He was a movie buff and loved good old fashion Coca-Cola. Dwight enjoyed wildlife and had a special place in his heart for the unloved wildlife such as snakes and creepy crawlers. In his youth, he was a competitive body builder and continued to work out until his illness and death. With grateful hearts we remember the ways in which his long life has been a blessing to us all.
