So sorry to hear of his passing. You all were good neighbors in Shell Point, SC. We missed you when you moved. Now we pray eternal rest & perpetual Light for GySgt. Donovan and pray God comforts his family with peace, strength, courage, and trust in God's Promises.

Duane was truly an exceptional individual and fantastic Marine. He is one of those individuals that only come along once in a lifetime. We interacted at MCRD and MCB, Quantico. May his family know that they are in my thoughts and prayers.
