I love you so much Dwayne. Words can’t express the hurt that I feel knowing that I can’t hold your hands in mine or look into your eyes again. You were ALWAYS singing to me and rocking out to our favorite bands in the car together. It’s the little things that I miss so much. You were my best friend and I was yours. You were with me for a lot of my firsts and you’ll be apart of me forever.❤️
Couldn’t bring myself to look at this. Didn’t want to breakdown. Seeing all the heartbreaking messages and knowing how hard grieving is to recover from. Feeling so sorry for all your childrens , brothers , sisters and father’s pain. Knowing it never really heals. Thanks for your friendship. We will always make sure the kids are taken care of. Love ya.

Praying for Dwayne’s family strength and healing prayers. I’m so sorry for the loss of your love one🙏🏽🙏🏽 gone to soon at such a young age he will be missed by many.
Uncle Dwayne as far back as I can remember you have always made sure that we knew how much you loved us and always cared for us kids. I will always remember the last time I seen you a few months back in shnucks in Columbia and you told me to come by whenever I could and gave me the biggest hug and the smile you always had never left your face. You will truly be missed by so many and you will live on forever through all the amazing memories from all the peoples lives you have truly touched through the years. We love you dearly and I just know that grandma Judy aunt Sandy uncle brad Ed Justin and Nate have all greeted you with open arms and smiling beautiful faces love you so much uncle Dwayne may you rest in peace until we meet again
Our love was always forever and that’s really all that I need to say. You will always be loved and missed and it’s crazy I’m typing this, but I’m here now and forever 💕
I haven’t even been able to bring myself to even look at your obituary and I saw your face and I couldn’t go any further. You have been a part of my life for so long I don’t even know how to accept moving forward in life without you. We are so opposite in every way it made us a crazy couple, but, our differences complimented each other when it came to parenting and almost 34 years after meeting you, we settled into our best relationship, the relationship we started with…friends. Losing you has taken a chunk out of my heart that can never be replaced. I will do my best to make you proud and be there for our kids and Jeffrey like you would want me to be. You are free now, free from pain and worry. Unfortunately, we are left to miss you and grieve you and pick up the pieces of our shattered hearts and lives and somehow go on without you. You are a larger than life, one of a kind, funny, smart, stubborn at times, wild, surprisingly sensitive, loving, giving, passionate person and you will never be forgotten. Thank you for including me in your life even after we were divorced. Thank you all of the years of memories. Thank you for giving me the best gifts ever, our kids. Thank you for being my friend. RIP Dwayne
Love, Michelle
Michelle
When you have a chance to catch your breathe please reach out to me I would love to talk. My prayers go out to you and the kids.

My heart is broken knowing you told me you felt something was gone happen. I reply our conversation from that night in my head. I wish there was some I could of done. I told you ya butt wasn’t leaving yet still got life to live. I’m sooooo freaking sad 😞 just so lost for words. I love you forever ♾️
