In Memory

Dwight A. Mey

It is with sorrow we learn that Dwight recently passed away at home July 9th, causes not given.  He came to the 55th reunion in 2017 with a bag of MI apples to share, plus his news, memories of York, and quietly wise commentary.

Although his death was a surprise (to me), I would like to celebrate his incredible, creative, family oriented life.  We knew each other in Mr Witmer's choir and remained friends until this time.  As an Architect for the Middle Eastern Division of the Army Corp of Engineers, he traveled extensively, once getting lost while on a run in Cairo.  The love of his life Annette (his wife), and his daughters and grandchildren were his pride and joy.  He will be missed by all who knew him.  RIP dear friend.

So glad to have connected with Dwight again at the 55th class reunion and have had the chance to remember how we enjoyed Mr. Erickson's English classes together. Always easy-going and comfortable to talk and joke with--he was one of my favorite guys at York. It was really a reunion high-point to have been able to tell him that.

I first met Dwight at York High, at a time when he and his brother were struggling to stay together after the loss of their parents in an accident. We sang together in Mr. Witmer’s choir. We reconnected at the York 55th reunion, shortly after his loss of his beloved Annette. He spoke of his devotion to his daughters Maggie and Marcy. Since then we have been correspondents. I had so much looked forward to seeing him at the next class reunion. Dwight was a skilled and creative architect of words, both written and spoken. He seemed to have a near-ecstatic appreciation of details and their harmonious interaction. His Christmas letters were masterpieces. From our world’s perspective, it is never a good time to lose a precious friend; I have every confidence that in Dwight’s new world, at the building of the new heaven and new earth, his arrival will be right on time.
