<div>At 12:10am on 11/30 our father Dwight Downer was tragically killed by a hit and run driver on Eastchester Rd in the Bronx. Our father was more than just our dad he was a pillar in the community and had a positive impact on each and every person that knew him.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Whether you knew him as “Coach D”, “Dwight”, or “Uncle Paul”, everyone loved our father. For the past 12 years he has volunteered his time teaching football at his former high school Dewitt Clinton High School and the Bronx Buccaneers. He truly enjoyed being a role model and mentor for the youth of the Bronx.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>At this difficult time our family is gratefully accepting donations to help cover the cost of funeral arrangements and any other related costs incurred. Any remaining funds will be donated to the football programs where he dedicated the remaining years of his life. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your generosity is greatly appreciated as our family navigates this challenging time.
</div>
