Although I was not privileged to meet Mr. McGee, all stories I have heard thus far have been favorable.I am so sorry for your loss and will keep you in my prayers.
Dwight Allen McGee was the kindest man I have ever met.He touched my heart the first day I met him and that feeling just got stronger through the years…That georgious smile will stay with me forever…He is the one that dubed me Aunt Sammy That was because I hated the nickname so he made sure that Brett and Sean called me that when they were younger.Just to agrevate me… Oh how mad I would get and he just grinned from ear to ear. What else can I say.. This was Dwight… He was a loving careing man. Who loved life and his family and friends very much and would give the shirt off his back or his last dime if he thought you needed it..He will always be loved and remembered..Rest in Peace Big Daddy D… May God Bless your Soul
I MET DWIGHT IN 10TH GRADE I KNEW HIM AS (FLOUNDER).AS THE YEARS WENT BY,I WOULD SEE HIM AT O'REILLY'S AND IT USUALLY TOOK 20 MINUTES TO BUY A BULB, BECAUSE WE WOULD TALK AND PICK AT EACH OTHER. HE HAD A GREAT PERSONALITY AND SENSE OF HUMOR.HE ALWAYS MADE ME LAUGH. I MISS HIM ALREADY.
I remember and think about Dwight as a kid. What a great guy he was. Having no sisters myself, I thought it must have been a bit challenging, especially being the middle child. Dwight became a wonderful father as well as an awesome brother and son in a family that I treasure and shared a part of my childhood with. I am thankful for the fond memories and hold you all close to my heart. Peace be with you.
