Carl Edward Lee Duncan passed on Saturday, September 20, 2025, at around 10:36 pm, very tragically and unexpectedly, during a motorcycle accident.

Carl Duncan was a beloved father of three beautiful children. He will be remembered by his oldest daughter, Mallory Duncan, his only son, Alexander Duncan, his baby girl, Sadie Duncan, and her Mother Koma Goodman.

He will be forever cherished by his soon-to-be fiancée and partner, Aron Meyer and her daughter, Alli. Also close to his heart are his uncle Hubert Duncan, and his children: Corrine Duncan, Matthew Duncan, and Johnathan Duncan, his three living aunts, Nancy Young, her husband Jack, and their children, Stacy and Jessica Young, Trina Duncan, and her son Eric Mowery, and Jennifer Harness, his cousins Tommy York and his dear wife Beth and his sister, Hope Wilkerson, Barbara Parks, and her brothers Chris Duncan and Preston Parks, his cousin Dillon Vandergriff, his last living brother James Duncan and his dear mom Sandy, his chosen Mother Donna Duncan, close friend Justin Gray and many more close friends and extended family.

Carl Duncan was very passionate about Harley-Davidson motorcycles, He loved riding his motorcycle all over the country to many motorcycle events and loved collecting motorcycles. He was very proud of his tattoos, and his knowledge and strength to work on cars. He had the ability to fix anything. He was the best friend you could ever ask for. You could speak to him about anything in your hearts and mind and he'd listen and help anyway he could.

Carl Duncan was a fellow united soldier in the U.S. Army who served bravely for our country overseas. Carl served multiple tours for his family and chose to make many sacrifices for those he loved.

Carl Duncan was a son in Christ and was welcomed into heaven by his very missed brother David Duncan, his father Carl Sr. , his grandparents, his aunts, and by many beloved passed family members.

We celebrate as Carl Duncan wants us to remember him and all the dear memories in the good times of his funny, goofiness and his contagious laughter and beautiful smile. He loved his family dearly and would want us to come together and celebrate him and his life by how he lived his life. He wanted to live life to the best of his ability. Although 46 years of Carl Duncan seems short, we remember him for the beloved man he was and will continue to be in our hearts.
