Dwan R. Margeson, of 316 Munson Rd., passed away unexpectedly on Wednesday, September 23, 2009, at the age of 55.
Born June 24, 1954 in Newark, NY, he was a son of the late Lewis and Gertrude (Hodges) Margeson. Dwan grew up and graduated high school in Phelps. He had been employed with Cayuga Medical Center for the past fifteen years. An avid outdoorsman, he most enjoyed hunting with his sons and 4-wheeling with family and friends. When family and friends got together, Dwan could be found behind the grill in "his half" of the garage....lol. Work was an important part of his life as well, and he took great pleasure in the many friends he made along the way. He was a very loving husband, father, grandfather, co-worker and friend. Dwan touched many lives and everyone will miss his love and generous spirit.
