Dwayne Smalls was born to Beverly Smalls in Sacramento, CA on August 14, 1986. Dwayne was raised in South Carolina before beginning a career with the United States Navy. It was in A-School where he met his match and then soon to be wife, Dominique. They were both stationed in San Diego, CA and they were married on February 14, 2011. They welcomed their son Dwayne “Rodell” Tyrone on March 18, 2012. Dwayne was immediately loved by everyone who met him. His smile and personality were larger than life and you could not be in his presence without cracking a smile. Whether it was dancing or singing or simply being his funny self, Dwayne made our day and our lives brighter. Dwayne was preceded in death by a brother, Tyrone Smalls. Dwayne is survived by his loving wife, Dominique Smalls, and his son Rodell Smalls of San Diego, CA. A daughter, Kaliyah Smalls of North Carolina. Mother, Beverly Smalls and brother, Shannon Smalls of San Diego, CA. A sister Pamela Smalls, a niece Talieha, nephews: Tyrone, Traevon, Jameir, Jayden, & Joel all of North Carolina and a host of extended family and friends. As we mourn the loss of our loved one, we choose to REMEMBER and CELEBRATE the fullness of the life that Dwayne led instead of dwelling on our loss. We must continue to keep Dwayne’s spirit and greatness alive in the way he would have lived.
