Dustin loved his freedom a great deal and doing what he wanted and when he wanted was paramount, for sure.
In the brother's later years, there came a time when Spencer and Dustin had a job together, at the same place; Spencer had helped to get him hired.
Some 4 - 6 weeks into it, I had a chance to share conversation with Dustin, so I asked him how he liked the job, and he, in his unique way paused and thought for a second and said, "It just ain't worth it."

I laughed and he laughed and we quickly moved on to more topics (and he quickly moved on from the job) back to his home where his time was worth it, to Dustin.

Dustin did also love to talk and fellowship and was always respectful of me, and I, of him as well. And we had a lot of conversations. We took a taxi to Smithville Lake and once, he loved taxi rides, those were worth it, too, to Dustin.

Now, the unimaginable is here.

Dustin's Legacy is here before us, and for us, it is a reminder that when we go through our lives and want time with others, always be vigilant, always reach out, and never doubt that kindness towards one another will build the strongest bonds, lasting forever and always into our minds and our memories when we're gone.
