May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief, and find comfort from knowing that God draws close to the broken-hearted.

We are sure going to miss our brother-in-law, Duane. Enjoyed all his stories and the adventures we took with him and his wife, Joy, fishing and traveling in the mountains.
