 Sorry for your loss. he reminds me of his Dad

DWIGHT, the only brother of 5 sisters (l deceased) is in our hearts forever. We had good family times together, sharing holidays, vacations, birthdays, camping trips and most of all just laughing! (and eating) When a loved one leaves us we realize life is too short but we know we will meet again in our heavenly home. Dwight, we will love you forever. Til we meet again.  LOVE Arleen

We were so sorry to hear about Dwight. Also very sorry he had to suffer the way he did.Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.Rich and Barb Hayes

it has been my delight to be friends with Dwight and the family for the years we have been here in Longmont.They are most honest family. Dwight was the best father I have ever known. We traded talents of his and I gave lessons to the best clarinet student I have have ever taught.Debbie was the same wonderful person as mom and dad.He would help anyone in need, and we lost a man in our lives we will have with us alweysGod Blessed us having him with us.BE PROUD OF YOUR FAMILY AND ENJOY WHAT WAS GIFTDDig

Dwight was admired and loved by so many people. Greeting him in heaven are mom and dad, oldest sister, Patsy, a great nephew and many loved aunts and uncles. He is survived by his wife, Susan; three children, Brad, Kim, and Shelly, their spouses, and nine grandchildren; a stepdaughter, Debbie and stepson, John.  Two older sisters and two younger sister are greatly missing him, also. Along with four sisters, a multitude of nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts and uncles are feeling his lose.  Dwight touched many lives with his love of teaching, coaching, building and remodeling homes.  He left his artistic touches in his beautiful photography of the outdoor life he loved and his stained glass projects. Janice, Arleen, Lynnette, and spouses will miss him at their annual Christmas get together. Charlotte and spouse will miss their shared love of Native American art.  Dwight smiled each time he saw any of us coming in the door of his room at Boulder Manor where he spent the last four months of his life.  Dwight will enjoy sharing his stories of hunting, fishing, hiking, and photography with the Creator. God brought him comfort by taking him to his heavenly home much sooner than we expected. Birthdays will never be the same without him to share it with each year.   We will so miss Dwight each and every day. We each love you.

To the Austin Family: I am truly sorry for your loss. I knew Dwight to be an outstanding man and a truly kind and thoughtful soul. I was so lucky to spend time with Dwight on the river where he always seemed at home. He was talented, kind and a special person. I know he was taken from you far too early, but I am glad he now is at peace. The waters of the Rocky Mountains will miss him, as will I. Please take care of yourselves during this difficult time.
