I am so sorry to hear about this. I met Duker a couple of years ago with Sabrina at UK football games and last time I saw was at a game earlier this year. When he told me his last name I said I knew some Bogards when I was growing up in Winchester. He said they were his grandparents. Nicest people in the world and Duker reminded me so much of his grandfather. This is very sad. My thoughts and prayers go out to Sabrina, his friends, and family.

Just the other day I was thinking of you and how you were one of nicest and sweetest guys I had known...In Christ there are no good-byes and in Christ there is no end- so I'll hold on Jesus with all that I can to see you again.
