Condolence: Dwight was a good friend while at the FAA Hqs and we remained in contact for many years after our time there. A true gentleman. Scholar. Great wisdom and wit. I miss our emails and telephone chats. Rest in peace with Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Condolence: Mr. Ragle I am sad to learn of the next phase of your journey. I love that you let Matt and I be boys when we were growing up. I learned many things from you as a child. For example: Names of tools, what a coffee can can be used for, how to laugh and enjoy life to its fullest.
All the best to the Ragle family.

Condolence: I am deeply saddened by the loss of my grandfather, Dwight Ragle. He was a witty and clever man who loved his family deeply. Throughout my 14 short years with my grandfather, I have learned many valuable lessons from him about success in school, life and for the future.
I recall fondly of the laughter my grandfather and I shared. One of my favorite memories with him is when we used to have contests to see who could make the funniest face (I always won of course).
I am certain that my grandfather is looking over his family whom he loved dearly.
Now, instead of calling him every time I make the honor roll or giving him a recap about winning a medal in a cross country meet, he can see it for himself.
I recall a phone call with my grandfather when I was about 10. At the time, I thought what he was saying was extremely boring and irrelevant to my 10 year old ways of playing with dolls and thinking I was good at soccer. I now know that what he said to me that day are the words I am going to carry with me everyday. He told me that I was a smart girl who was going to do great things. He said that one day in the future when I am my parents age I would have a job. He told me that every morning I should wake up and say to myself “gee I can’t wait to go to work today.”
My thoughts and prayers are with my family during this time and I hope we can recall fond memories of grandpa.
