Paul Anderson Duke

Dear Duke Family,
I knew Paul when I was the Exec. Director of the Gwinnett Foundation in the early 90's and then as the Area Director for the Gwinnett United Way. What a kind, loving, embracing man who give me great guidance and support! He was truly an inspiration! This world was certainly a better place because of him! Our thoughts are with you all! Warmly, Deb Roberts

Dear Duke Family,
Heaven has certainly gained a wonderful addition. My mother, Claire Pringle, is a resident at Presbyterian Village on the same floor as Paul. What a presence he had and a great smile! You all are in my thoughts and prayers!

To the Duke Family,
I was so saddened to hear about Paul's passing. My mom lives at Presbyterian Village and I saw Paul on a regular basis. Even though he suffered from Alzheimers, I could sense his intelligence and kindness. What a great smile he had! I will keep your family in my prayers.
Terry Edwards (daughter of Claire Pringle)

To the Duke Family I extend my condlences.
Mr. Duke was the funniest man. I was a Receptionist for Frankel, Hardwick, Tanenbaum, Fink et Clark. He would phone for Mr. Frankel and request to be put on hold (that was our joke time). Oh...and that voice...I can hear him in my spirit now. Rest my friend.

Mr. Duke gave me an opportunity in the mid 1980's as a leasing agent. Always a friendly smile and pat on the back. The Crossing Center Office product, always stood out with it's blue awnings. Mr. Duke told me that people wanted to park in front of their door at their business. Thank you Mr. Duke for the opportunity you gave me and the vision you had for the North end of Atlanta.

To Mrs. Jean, Frazier, and family,

Mr. Duke was a great leader and friend. He always had a positve attitude and always encouraged me to seek the highest standards and achieve my goals. He will be missed. God bless you and your family during this difficult time.

Paul made a huge difference in my life: he believed in me at a time when I didn't believe in myself, and I am now a better man for his many influences. He will be sorely missed. My deepest condolences to all of his family.

To Jean and the family. Paul Duke was a great inspiration in my life and I will never forget.

Kind Regards,
