Jerry Dwight is lovingly remembered by his family as one of the funniest storytellers of all time. He enjoyed gardening, was an avid history reader and loved a good political debate. He served in the Army National Guard from 1964-1966. No family gathering will ever be the same without our precious Jerry, and his stories will be terribly missed.
