He was an active advocate on Tik Tok for Mental Health and Tardive Dyskinesia. He loved old cars and was involved in several car groups. His 1963 Plymouth Valian (Ethel) was what most people saw him driving. Dwayne loved Hot Wheels, Pogs, doing arts and crafts, Thrift Store shopping, garage sales, and any type of 80's and 90's nostalgia.
Dwayne was well known for his infectious smile, random acts of kindness, and heart bigger than he was. He was the type of person you were honored to call friend.
