Daren Duncan Obituary

Published by Legacy on Nov. 8, 2025.
Daren Ray Duncan, age 59 of Whitesboro, Oklahoma passed away from this life on November 4, 2025. Daren was born on December 1, 1965 in Andrews, Texas to Carolyn (Duffield) and Rodger Cline. Later in life, he was adopted by his step-father, Gary Duncan, who raised him. Daren lived in the Kiamichi area most of his life. After graduating high school at East Chambers High School in Winnie, Texas, he went to work in the oilfield where he worked until later years when he drove a semi truck. Daren loved people and enjoyed telling stories and jokes and never met a stranger. He also enjoyed fishing, riding quads, and his dogs, especially "Harley". His children were his pride and joy and he loved his family dearly. Daren will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
