Not sure what to say?

We thought the service for Bill was GREAT! The words of rememberance at the end by friends & family were a fitting touch, even though they did create a few tears. We thought the American Flag presentation with Taps was very fitting for Bill Duncan! We enjoyed the service very much. God Bless the Family.

When were the Duncan's NOT a part of my life? My folks both thought that Dude and Dunc walked on water so I grew up always assuming that it was true! The decency and the grace with which Mr. Duncan lived his life is a lesson to us all...we'll all miss you, Mr. Duncan. What a proud legacy you've left behind! XO~Mel

Bill Duncan was my friend and a friend to all who knew him. He had
the great quality of getting along with all people. He was a "giver" to those in need....a very kind gentleman. We'll miss
you, Bill....at the Ford retiree breakfasts....at the Chiefs'games...
and whenever your good friends get together. Our thoughts and prayers are with Dude and the boys.

My deepest sympathy. From a fellow Ford retiree.

To my friend Bill and his family. We had some precious moments together in our 30 plus years with Ford. I cherish all of them, especially our last Ford Retirees brakfast at Harrahs. I recall you asked me to get some jelly for you, when I went back for seconds. That was one of the few times you ever asked me to do something for you . May God rest your soul Bill and may God bless your family and many friends with the strengh, the hope, the trust, the faith and the courage, to continue our lives...

It has been a long time since I was associated with Ford Motor Company. However, I will never forget Bill’s kindness and friendship. When I first started with the company, he made me feel like I was special even though I was only a mailroom clerk at the time. His big smile and his encouraging words helped me adjust to the corporate world.

I remember Bill very well when I was in the Kansas City Region. I spent a lot of time in the district with Earl Watson and Bill Willis. I will always remember that great big smile on Bill's face when I would say hello - he was a touch of class and am so very sorry to hear of his passing away - my thoughts and prayers are with his family.

On behalf of all the employees of Merle Kelly Ford, Dan and I would like to offer our sincerest sympathy for the family of our good friend Bill. He was a very good friend of our father Merle, and helped us on many occasions in our business. He will be missed.

Dad, I will miss you. Your Son.
