Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always. Thinking of you Lee Anne....

Lee Ann: I'm so very sorry to hear of Duane's passing. He was a very kind, quick witted and giving person. I shall light a candle at St. Paul's Cathedral in his memory. All my love and thoughts are with you

Lee Ann, Naomi and I are so sorry to hear about Duane's passing. He was a delight to me in the marketplace. Our prayer is that you will have "the peace of God" during this period of grief. God comfort you.

Duane was instrumental in the maturing of Tallahassee as a market, added immeasurably to the advertising business and made some excellent advertising. Only just learned of his passing, would have been at his service had I known.

Duane Franceschi will always be remembered by everyone who knew him for his uncanny wit, cutting edge creativity, intuitive business acumen and genuine civic spirit; his willing smile and most of all, his loving partnership with Lee Ann. He is one great guy I am proud to have known, worked with in AAF and admired over the years. He has left a bright mark on our world.

Dear Lee Ann, George and I are heartbroken to hear of Duane's passing. We are so grateful to have had our visit last month. Know you are loved by many and you are in our prayers. Love you, Carole

Lee Ann, so sorry for your loss...you and your family are in my prayers.

Duane and Lee Ann attended our Miami High 50th Reunion, 10 years ago this month. Lucky me--I met them the first night; what a happy, loving couple they were! and as all have said, Duane was funny and outgoing in a way that showed his lifetime talents that he used so well professionally. My condolences to Duane's family and a BIG HUG for you, Lee Ann. Remember the good times.

Lee Ann and family,
I'm so sorry for your loss. A truly kind and gifted man ... and the best boss ever.
