Sorry to hear about Duane. His father, Bob Alvine, was my dad's cousin. (Cliff Johnson). R.I.P.

Agree with Dale... Duane always brightened up the room as soon as he entered. I know his Anderson uncles and especially his aunts had a special fondness for him. I did too. Rest in peace, Duane. Cousin Bill

To sum Duane's life up he was a bright spot in a darkened world where as his days grew longer he became sweeter and truly loved the people who surrounded him in his life.
