Dujuan Yager Obituary

Visit the Family First Funeral & Cremations Services - Marcellus website to view the full obituary.

Dujuan left us unexpectedly on September 17th, leaving a profound void in the hearts of all who knew and loved him. A devoted father, he cherished his children and grandchildren immeasurably. Their accomplishments brought him immense pride, and he delighted in sharing their milestones with anyone willing to listen.

An individual of many interests, Dujuan embraced life's adventures with enthusiasm. He found joy in camping, hunting, and spending time outdoors, as well as enjoying live music and nightlife. His passion for life extended to creating memorable experiences with family and friends. As a skilled handyman, Dujuan was always eager to lend a helping hand, assisting with home repairs, yard work, and much more, all while radiating positivity and a warm smile.

Dujuan is survived by his children, Derris (Rose) Yager, Rhiannon (Michael) Yager-Perkins, and stepdaughter Dasha Piercey, along with seven grandchildren—with another on the way. He leaves behind a loving extended family and many close friends, including honorary siblings and countless nieces and nephews.

The world feels a little smaller without Dujuan's vibrant spirit. He will be profoundly missed by everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.
