Dwain lived a full and multi-faceted life. He graduated from Timken Vocational High School in 1950 and went on to serve our country in the Army during the Korean War. He put in many years of hard work as a pressman at Litho Color Printing. All his loyalty and dedication paid off and he eventually bought and owned the company. Dwain was a very active member of Parma-South Presbyterian since 1963. He participated in the Property Committee, was the President of the Fellowship Club, and ushered regularly. Many parishioners will remember him as the Candy Man. He always had a pocket of hard candy, one of sugar free, and one of chocolate for everyone to partake of. He had a wonderful sense of humor, was quite the handyman, and was an avid bowler in the Retiree's Bowling League from 1991-2019. Dwain touched so many lives and will be missed by all of them.
