Dwain married his beloved Bonnie on June 6, 1992, and the two of them enjoyed 29 beautiful years; traveling, cruises, motor homing. They traveled to Bible lands: Israel and Greece. Time relaxing at the lake house. Dwain was a big football fan. He enjoyed watching football, fishing and time on his pontoon boat with family and grandchildren. Dwain was a member of East Lake Baptist Church. He was devoted to the Lord. Dwain, as we all do, strayed from the Lord, but the love of the Holy Spirit brought him back into the fold. Dwain shared his story and the love of Lord with his family. He wanted them to know the Lord. To have the peace of knowing Jesus and have a strong relation with God. Dwain's family will dearly miss him; but find comfort in knowing he is in Heaven with The Father, and they will see him again.
