Will miss you, brother. Glad to have been there that Christmas day to lead you to the Savior. As a result, you are now with Him. Rest with Him. See you again one day.

I worked with Duane in the ER at CHKD for several years. He was like a little brother to me, and we were always playing tricks on each other.
During slow times, he would tell me about his family and show me pictures. His family was very important to him, and I'm so glad he was surrounded by so much love. I would like to express my sympathy in your great loss, and I hope you can find healing in knowing others remember and care.
