Dwight Ernest Love

Dwight Ernest Love, age 76, of Tuscumbia, passed away on Thursday, January 16, 2025, at Helen Keller Hospital Dwight proudly served his country in the U.S. Army. He retired from Reynolds & Wise Aluminum. He was his boys’ hero, and they strive to be half the man he was. If you knew him, you know he was a man of God always spreading the word. He was a pastor at Charity Chapel, a husband of 53 years, a good daddy, and an awesome pawpaw. He loved his wife, his family, and most of all, he loved his Lord. His family finds comfort in knowing that he is in heaven and now knows with absolute clarity what we sing about, pray for, and vaguely understand. Such a loss for his family and friends, but we know there is rejoicing in Heaven. Until we meet again, we love you.
