Dear Duane, I’ve been reliving that day about nine months ago when we sat in your parents living room talking of our different adventures along this life’s journey.. Oh how I loved your way ~ especially how much you loved dogs ~ that’s something we definitely had in common .
I also remember thinking “ Wow my nephews personality is literally lighting up this room “ Well now dear one , your soul is helping to light up the heavens . Angels Hold You Precious Nephew , God Bless You .
Love from Aunt Peggy
I will always remember my nephew Duane as the sweet little boy with the impish grin, full of fun and laughter whenever he came with his parents and sister to visit his cousins and I in New Jersey.
I haven't seen him for many years, but was able to visit with him in Gainesville at his parents home last summer.
What a delight it was to meet this polite, intelligent, outgoing and energetic young man, still sporting that impish grin I remember so well. I could understand why his parents were so proud of him.
I love you, dear nephew. You will be very much missed. I'm so glad I had the chance to see you again.
Love,
Aunt Cathy
I am so sorry for your loss! Duane was a friend of my son's when they were young. I can only imagine the pain you are feeling. My heart and prayers go out to you all.
I'm so sorry to read this...I worked with Duane Sr. in forestry, and bought my car in 2009 from Duane Jr. What a terrible event. My thoughts are with the Durgee family.
