Dwight Caldwell, age 76, of Tecumseh, MI, passed away on March 26, 2023 at his home. Dwight was born on June 23, 1946 in Pikeville, KY to Pritchard and Helen (Dignall) Caldwell.
Dwight grew up in Kentucky and moved to Michigan when he was 19. He had lived in the Tecumseh area since the late 70's. He worked for Ford Motor Company, retiring after 30 plus years of service. He was a member of the UAW and remained involved even after he retired. Dwight enjoyed being outdoors, whether it was hunting or fishing. He was an avid deer hunter, and at one point owned his own taxidermy business.
Dwight is survived by his son, James (Lori) Caldwell of Jackson, eight grandchildren, Kortney, Jackie, Zach, Gracee, Patrick, Elizabeth, Bradon, and Hallie; and one great-grandchild, Freya; his siblings, Eva June Thayer, Herschel Caldwell, and Paul (Libbey) Caldwell. He was preceded in death by his parents, a son, Joseph Caldwell, and two of his siblings, PJudy and Cleda.
Per his wishes, cremation has taken place. A private memorial service will be held at a later date. Arrangements by Staffan-Mitchell Funeral Home, Chelsea.
