My heartfelt blessings go out to the family and friends that had the opportunity to know Ms Duncan. Not only did I attend St Barnabas with her but she was also a teacher at my high school as well. She will be greatly missed. God Bless!

Dear Flossie Jane
As people pass through our lives, there are some who have blessed us and we never forget them. I still remember as if it were yesterday, your diligence in organizing our wedding gifts at our reception 55 years ago. I can still see you opening the gifts and "cataloging" them, which made it easy for us to acknowledge the givers. I know I said "thank you", but perhaps I should have said it many times. I will miss you.
Love
Your Cousins Mickey and Kenny
