My deepest condolences for your loss. Sincere thoughts for the family and friends.

I am trying to find out if this is David Duncan who attended and graduated from Gulf Breeze High School in Gulf Breeze, FL in 1974. I went to school with David and was hoping to locate him because we are having our 50th high school reunion in October of this year.

Sandra,
I just want to say that you and David were are very special to me. My heart is sad yet joyful that David doesn't have to suffer anymore here on this earth. God has set him free from the pain, discomfort and horror of that dreadful disease. We will miss him our dear sweet friend. I still miss him coming to my office and he would talk about his faith, his beautiful wife and sometimes he would come get me and we would go out and watch the sunrise outside my office. I am so glad that we got to have our visit on Friday. I'll never forget that as long as I live. I love you both and please know that I'm only a phone call away if you need anything. I am praying for God to strengthen and bless you during this time of sorrow and loss. David was a husband who loved his wife and his family. I have lost a dear friend and heaven has gained a beautiful angel. Love you

David was a good man. He loved life, his family and friends.

Like King David, he was a mighty warrior until God called him home.

We will always love you and cherish your memory. Your light will shine each year at ACS Relay for Life.
