Dwight was my childhood friend, we played board games such as Sorry and Monopoly along with baseball, basketball and billiards most summer days in Smiths Grove. Three of us local boys came home on leave at the same time before we shipped out to our overseas assignments. It was the last time I would ever see Dwight. Goodbye, Friend.
