Hello. My name is Kendra. I'm really sorry to hear about Dustin. I knew him very well. I worked with him at Bridgestone and again at m tek. We actually hung out alot and talked alot on the phone. We helped each other with alot of relationship problems lol. I just wanted to say Dustin was one of the best guys i have ever met in my life and one of my closest friends. Im still in shock myself and can't imagine how u guys feel.I just say i'm lucky to have known him for as long as i have.He was very caring, kind and a blast to just be around.He always knew how to make people smile even in the worst of moments. I have never met anyone like him in my life. I will always remember him in my mind and in my heart.Best wishes to you and ur family. I can't say I know how hard it is but even tho he is not with us everyone will remember him forever! He touched alot of hearts. So once again i am deeply sorry u and ur family have to go through this. U and ur family is in everyone's hearts and prayers!!!! If u need anything feel free to call me on my cell, 1-567-207-7048.

I just want to say that I am deeply sorry for your loss, and I am sharing in your grief. Dusty was one of the best friends I've ever had, and I always knew that no matter where we were at in our lives, he would be there for me. He was one of the most genuinely caring and loving people that I've ever known. We had so many wonderful times together, and I am going to miss him for the rest of my life.

I just wanted to say I'm sorry for your loss. I didn't get a chance to know Dustin past 10th grade or so. I remember when Dustin first came to Bellefontaine schools. My twin brother, Josh, and I instantly became friends with Dustin. We all enjoyed riding bikes together and we also had the same birth date, Dec. 11th 1982.

He was a very likeable person and I regret not being able to stay in touch with him past those couple of years. I'm sure he grew into a great young man and I'm really sorry to hear that he passed away at such a young age.  He was always very friendly and got along with everyone.

I was a friend of Dustys and Im so sorry to hear of your loss. I cant imagine what your family is going through. I will always remember Dusty and the sweet caring person that he was. He was always there for me whenever i needed someone. We had alot of good times and I've never met another guy like him...words cant even describe. You should be very proud. We had long conversations and he was the only person in the whole world that could had such deep and meaningful words. He always spontaniously brightened my day, I wish i would have spent more time with him. Im so sorry. Know hes watching over all of us.

Deb and Dale,
   Its been along time and I'm so very sorry this has to be the way to get in touch. My deepest sympathies go out to you both. Dusty was one of my best friends and we pretty much grew up together. I just regret not staying in touch my best friend these last few years. I can only wish my sister Samm and him are together as we speak enjoying the better life together(they was always good friends). Because we all know Dusty enjoyed life to the fullest! My best most recent memory of Dusty was running into him again and moving him into Scioto Village in Kenton when i lived out there and Dusty talking Dale into giving me a job. Man I'm sure gonna miss him he always had a special place in my heart as my friend. Dusty will be sadly missed but NEVER FORGOTTEN! Again my deepest condolences go out to you both if you need anything please contact me at my e-mail.
