Duston Lee Percifield was born on October 23, 1998, to Kevin and LeAnn Percifield in Rock Island, Illinois at the Trinity Medical Center.

Growing up, his favorite movies were The Outsiders and The Nightmare Before Christmas, and his favorite colors were black and purple. Later in life, his love for Outsiders grew into loving the TV show Sons of Anarchy. His passion was working on and riding motorcycles with his friends and family. He enjoyed loud music, whiskey, fishing, and video games. Dusty eventually became the president of the Redneck Riders Motorcycle Club. Yet, his greatest treasures, which he loved dearly, were his two sons, Kaleb and Valor Percifield.

Duston graduated from Mount Ayr High School and then went straight to work. He was always tinkering in the garage and working with his hands. He lived in Blockton, Iowa and worked at Daybreak in Clearfield, Iowa. Dusty passed away in the early morning of May 28, 2025 at the age of 26 1/2 at the University of Nebraska Medical Center in the Clarkson Tower in Omaha. He was surrounded by his parents; Kevin and LeAnn, his older siblings; Heather and Devin, and his two best friends; Aren Latham and Jonathan Cox.

He was survived by his parents; Kevin and LeAnn Percifield, his grandpa Leland Jones, his older sister; Heather Percifield, her fiance Peter Larsen and their son, Bane Larsen. His older brother; Devin Percifield and son Micah Armstrong. Devin's wife; Estella Percifield and their three daughters; Ashleigh, Illanna, and Lilleanna. Dusty was also survived by his two sons and greatest treasures; Kaleb and Valor Percifield.

His older sister tattooed his left hand with Kaleb and Valor's names and date of birth, and tattooed on his right hand the verse Romans 12:19 from the New King James Version. "Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, "Vengeance is Mine, I will repay." says the Lord. Duston will be forever remembered as Dusty the Purple Dog who loved motorcycles and was carefree and down-to-earth. He spent a lot of time making people happy and knew how to have fun. "It's not the love you make, it's the love you give." Nikola Tesla
