Not sure what to say?

Well done my colleague. Thank you for living your life so well. To Duncan's family, my sincere sympathy at this sad time.

One day in Duncan's writing and rhetoric seminar he said we'd be able to leave early. We instantly said NO! and stayed the entire class. Our adamant response took him aback. It shouldn't have because he was that kind of professor. You were a blessing, Duncan. A true blessing.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the family. You have all been so close. Rosalie and Ken Grosch (friends from Ethiopia days)

Thoughts and prayers for you all

I am so sad to learn of Duncan's death. I have so many fond memories of our time together at PSU--perhaps the fondest being our joint recitation of The Cat and the Hat at the beginning of a PT meeting. I will miss him so much.

Duncan's onservations and humor made his work with the Council of Writing Program Administrators both productive and fun. May memories of him continue to contribute to the lives of his family and friends.

To my friend and mentor: you will be missed

My thoughts and prayers are with you all, in deepest sympathy. Duncan will be missed by all of us.
