Alan Oglesby Obituary
He was employed at the Bowling Center on Eglin Air Force Base. He was a very outgoing and fun-loving person.
To go be with the angels, Duane leaves his wife of 13 years, Marda Oglesby; his 11-year-old daughter, Jessica; two stepchildren, Freddie and Heather; parents, Hubert and Betty Oglesby; two brothers, Thomas and William Oglesby; many aunts, uncles and cousins. We all loved him very much and he will be missed by many hearts.
A gathering will be where he loved to spend his time - Shoal River Bridge, off Highway 90, Crestview, on April 14 at 4 p.m.

I joined the Oglesby family almost 19 years ago and am so glad to have had the opportunity to know Duane. He was a loving father to Jessica and a wonderful son to Betty and Hub, and great husband to Marda. Duane I know you are soaring with the Angels and we will all meet you, Don, Melissa, my mother Marie and our other loved ones who left before us when our time comes. To Hub, Betty, Jessica and Marda, Roy and I will always be here for you for any of your needs. We love you all.
