Richard Joseph Duckett

I did not know Mr Duckett, but my friend and former colleague Deirdre Duckett shared his story. But he sounds like someone I would have become fast friends with. He sounds very interesting. I'm sure over the years his stories about SFP, St John's, making it to an NCAA Basketball Final and NIT Final and becoming a Division 1 referee -- he must have had a million fascinating experiences to share. And I probably could have learned a few golf tips along the way -- the way I play the coach in Mr....

A terrific guy, exert moment spent in his company was a good one.

Mr. Duckett was a great person who was fun to be around. I enjoyed all the great times with Mr. Duckett and his family, at many memorable events.

Our Deepest Sympathy to Dicks Family. We were friends with Dick and played many rounds of golf together. He was a Great Friend and always cared about others.
He will be dearly missed but never forgotten. May he Rest In Peace with his dear wife Joan.

I am best friends of his youngest son David. Met David at Mississippi State in the late 70's. Flew down to Naples in 2019 to visit Dave where he was taking care of his dad, Richard. Richard and I hit it off right at the bat. We both loved old movies and would watch at least one everyday. One night I grilled 3 racks of baby back ribs and Richard devoured almost a whole rack by himself. That definitely sealed our friendship. One hell of a fun week.

Condolences from the Hutchins Family in Washington, D.C. We’ve heard David talk of him often.

Dear Duckett Family,
We are so sorry for your loss. Your Dad was a wonderful man. May your fondest memories of him help you through the days ahead. Sending you all our deepest sympathies. The Rores Family and Mrs. Carol Carroll

Our deepest condolences! The Austrians will miss Dick, grandpa and great grandfather. We always had a great (family)time in Florida!
