To Carolyn and the entire Bender Family. We are so sorry for your loss and wish to express our condolences. We just heard of Dwayne's passing at 11:00 AM Thursday, and we don't know if we will be able to attend with such short notice, but will try. We will keep all of you in our hearts and prayers, and as Christians we know he is in a better place. I remember so many good times we spent together in our younger years, he was a good man and if everyone in this world could model themselves as Dwayne lived his life, wouldn't we be in such a more wonderful world?
