Not sure what to say?

I just found out about John's passing. I want to share with his children something he did. In the summer of 1999 I lost my husband to cancer at age 37.

My condolences extended to the family and friends of Dr John W Duke. I just read of his passing and was struck to reach out- his life seemed well balanced with faith, family and friends..
GOD Bless

I had the distinct pleasure of being on his care team at the cabin. He lived in such a simple manner and was always a cowboy. His presence has been missing from my life but I'm happy he's on that glorious shore. Probably listening to the quick silver band and some bill Monroe.... feeding the fish. You were my friend And your laughter will always be heard in my memory of you, John.

Patrick and Auburn, we were so sad to hear the news about your beloved dad.
There are really no words to express the heartbreak we know you have, and when you are blessed to have such a loving and caring dad, he will be missed every day, and will be in your hearts forever. Please know our prayers and thoughts are with you .
Sending our love, Linda,Wayne,Leah, and Scott Trigg. We all loved your dad, our Dr. Duke.

I am so sorry for your loss. May God provide the comfort and strength that your family needs at this difficult time (Matthew 5:4). Your family will be in my prayers.
