Bayshore Fire & Rescue, along with other agencies from Across Southwest Florida, honored the life of a volunteer firefighter who served more than a decade. Dozens of first responders paid their respects to volunteer Firefighter Dwight Henry at the Lee County Civic Center in North Fort Myers Thursday after Henry’s recent death following a medical emergency. “Just incredible,” said Chief Larry Nisbet of Bayshore Fire & Rescue. “I mean, the kid, he never let me down.” A service with honors was held for one of the Bayshore fire department’s own. “Dwight was here as a volunteer firefighter for 15 years,”” Nisbet said. “He was always here whenever we needed him, whenever we needed extra people, we had a project going on, he was always here.” It was fitting for someone who also went by the nickname “Shadow.” “Always had a smile,” Nisbet said. “A little bit of a quiet guy. But, every once and a while, he’d zing you with a good joke here and there, but always had a smile.” While the crew wanted to honor Henry’s life, they had to do so with caution. The service limited the Lee County Civic center to 10% capacity, while placing seats six feet apart and providing masks and hand sanitizer at the door. Although Henry is gone, Nisbet says he will have a lasting impact on the Bayshore crew. “I loved every time I saw him in here, and I’m going to miss his smile,” Nisbet said. “And we’re going to carry on without him, but we’re going to be a little less full on the crew without him around here.”
