Dwight was subject to asthma attacks and in 1934 his asthma got so much worse the doctor said he wouldn't live long and advised a different climate. They moved to Kane, Pennsylvania, which has an altitude of 2300 feet---it was a resort for folks with respiratory problems. In 1939 a daughter, Carol Jean Painter was born.
Dwight improved and lived 12 years and died in 1946. Mildred Painter had suffered with degenerative arthritis of the spine since December of 1980.
