A man of faith and community, Dwight was an active member of St. John Vianney Catholic Church and belonged to the Knights of Columbus and the American Legion.

My condolences to Dwight’s family. Dwight and I worked together at Calvert Cliffs. He was my NASCAR and golf buddy. I have a lot of great memories of the time we spent together. Dwight was a kind, gentle soul who treated people with warmth and sincerity. He brought laughter, loyalty, and a sense of easy companionship into the lives of those around him. His absence leaves a space that cannot be filled, and I will miss his friendship and the camaraderie I shared with him. Rest in peace brother. You will be deeply missed and never forgotten.
