He leaves behind him a host of loved ones to always cherish his memories.

Dwight was known to most by “VA”. He was a husband, son, father, brother, grandfather, uncle, cousin, friend, and overall wonderful man with a huge personality. But most of all he loved his family, and he loved the Lord. He would say “I know God got me.” Because of this, we can eventually have rest knowing exactly that.

Dwight was a hard worker and wanted to make sure that his family and loved ones ate. This world was not big enough for him. He worked with Concrete Feet Entertainment, he had his own assembly company, and he worked as a contractor for Lowes. He was a beast with his hands. He could put together just about anything without instructions. As a six year-old child he took apart televisions and reassembled them to fix them.

He was the life of the party and didn’t mind getting kicked out. Sometimes he would kick himself out because he knew it was coming. He was the most brutally honest person known and it came from a place of love. He wanted his loved ones protected, happy, in a good space, and never taken advantage of. If you know him, I’m sure you can see him, his teeth, his smile, and him explaining with “wooo wooo wooo”, and saying “yaaaaaah yaaaaaaaah!!!!”. Cherish good memories and celebrate his life. What would he do?
