Dwayne – Our Why

< 1 Minute Read | Posted in LIVIN | Posted during September 19, 2023

September 15th marked 10 years without Dwayne. The man who inspired the LIVIN movement, the reason why we do what we do. We would like to share some words from our CEO Casey about his best mate Dwayne.

“10 years without you, 10 whole years without waking up to some sort of uncanny message that brightened my day or anyones day that was lucky enough to receive it. To say that you are missed would be an understatement but I can’t find a more appropriate word to use. You are missed and you are loved. Despite the hole left in everyones hearts, we move forward, doing our best to turn this negative into some sort of positive, if that is possible in such circumstances.

You will never be forgotten and you will always live on in the hearts and smiles of the people who’s lives you touched. Life is special and you were a special person, I just wish we got to share more of it together.

If I could talk to you one last time, I would let you know that you are loved and I would thank you for the impact you had and continue to have on my life and all of the people who were fortunate enough to meet you. Wherever you are brother, I hope you are smiling!”

Casey Lyons – LIVIN CEO
