My former coach at Salve Regina. The toughest but nicest coach you could ever have. A wealth of knowledge and a pleasure to play and learn from. He built a program at Salve and did so much for his players. He drilled us for hours upon hours and I loved every minute of it. He made you compete and got the most out of his players. I will truly miss him. He wasn't only a coach to me he was a mentor and the kind of person who wanted his players to succeed. I played two years for him and they were the best years of my life. GODBLESS You Duke. You made me become a man.

Uncle Duke was a celebrity to me. He was bigger than life and it was always special to have him at family gatherings. I thank him for his example as a man and his encouragement. Uncle Duke had a very positive impact on my life. Will miss talking with him. Nephew, Jim Roberts
