Not sure what to say?

Duncan was a remarkable civic-minded person. When I was drafted to run for the Vermont Legislature from my district in South Burlington, Duncan found time to do lunch with me and mentor me about the process of running for public office.
He also leaves behind wonderful family. We have known his daughter Annie and family for many years now initially through Ohavi Zedek Synagogue.
With deepest condolences,
Laurie & Steve Parker & Family

I have such fond memories of playing in your house and boulder-filled basement on Old Farm Rd. when we were little. How good-looking and busy your parents were! I'm thinking about all of you. Debbie Wolf Page

I am sorry to hear that the world and Brown family has lost Duncan. I feel so fortunate to have known him. Most recently I enjoyed visits with him and hearing wonderful stories told with amazing vibrance and clairity. He has inspired many. We will all miss him. I feel his spirit now and it lives on.

Muffie, I am sorry to hear about the loss of your father.

A real gentleman. Wonderful memories of getting to know and work with Duncan during the '76 Snelling campaign and beyond. Condolences from Chuck & Susan Butler.

Since then everyone has stayed in touch and visited each other frequently. In my whole life I cannot think of another family as openhearted or as generous as all the Brown family.
The last time I saw Duncan and Georgie was at Wake Robin a year ago October when my sister Gayle Ward Inglis...

I have many fond memories of Duncan and all his family. Our condolences, Bill and Ann Henderson
