Per Doug Bullwinkel:

Dwight Graves 66, of Warner and Tucson Arizona peacefully passed Tuesday, September 3, 2013 surrounded by family and friends.  A Master potter, musician and artist, long-standing member of the league of NH Craftsmen, an active member of the Tucson Pottery Co-op, a NH Educator of the Year, accomplished musician, Vietnam Vet (67-69), Harley rider, activist, world traveler and peaceful warrior, Dwight was a remarkable "larger than life" character.  Over the years he was active in the pursuit of peace ande justice as a member of organizations including Clamshell Alliance, Veterans for Peace, and the American Legion.  Dwight was also a founding member of the band Peggosus of Concord, and D'Moja, a high energy African Diaspora drum and dance troupe based in Vermont.  Dwight was the recipient of the NH State Council of the Arts Governor's Art Award recognizing his commitment to teaching pottery and art to everyone from little kids to adults.  He worked at the Riverbend Mental Health Center in Concord for many years teaching pottery and founded the pillar House Blues Band.  Dwight's spirit can be felt all over the state through the inspiring murals created by his students in New Hampshire schools and communities as an artist-in-residence.  Many will remember his clay workshops and demonstrations in his teepee at the annual League of NH Craftsmen's Fair.  He joins his wife and love, Maribeth and leaves behind his daughters, Erin and Kayla; grandsons, Aedan and Ashlin; his brothers, Randy; two sisters, and contless circles of friends.

Bonnie Anderson (Dozler) stated I knew Dwight from junior high and Napa High School years he was in our youth group at the First Presbyterian Church in Napa.  Dwight and I were a couple for a while also.  His parents had the art store in Napa.  He lived out in the Coombsville Road area.  What a wonderful life he must of had with teaching childrento potter clay!  Sorry he had to leave this world so young.  May God be with his wife and daughters,grandsons and family.  May all come to know Jesus from his death.
