Oh how i wish many would have got to know the man. He was a man captured by the grace of God in his life and one that wanted to live his life for God's glory. He loved sports but it was always a means to an end, to make much of Christ. His early life in small town pemboke was in my mind even more amazing than his public life. He helped me see how living with purpose and conviction from elementary school can impact a community. I miss him with all my heart. I am Dwight’s brother.

Me and my wife had season tickets for the Generals even. Upon hearing about Dwight's passing i called my brother who said wow that is tragic, he was one of the all time great guys. I just wished I had gotten the chance to say Hi that spring before he passed. My brother played with Dwight at North Carolina and when he passed away I was stationed at Ft Bragg, NC.

He was a wonderful young man and had a promising future in baseball. He came to our church to speak. Several years ago I saw Lance Parrish at the Gibralter trade center and I mentioned Dwight's name and Mr. Parrish immediately stood up from his chair and commented what a wonderful man Dwight was.
