Duncan Flint Obituary

Duncan Coltrin Flint inexplicably passed away by possible accident, foul play or by suicide last week. The exact cause of death has not yet been determined. Duncan will forever be in our hearts.

Duncan was a happy, gentle and caring soul with a wide-ranging intellect and deep sensitivity. From his earliest days Duncan always had the kindest heart, being intuitively empathetic and wanting only the best for those around him. Duncan grew up with dogs and so loved our giant white drooly furry family members. Duncan was fortunate to have found deep passionate love twice, once in high school and again in college; he so loved being in love.

Duncan was a graduate of Rowland Hall-St. Marks in the class of 2013 and the Colorado School of Mines in the class of 2017, with a degree in electrical engineering. Most recently, he was working as an aerospace systems engineer at L3Harris in Plano, Texas, having moved there from Colorado in April of 2020.

Duncan was delighted to be taking his first steps into the world of young adulthood—his engaging new job, his own high-rise one bedroom apartment, his computer hobbies and personal engineering projects, and online gaming with his friends.

Duncan made deep and lasting friendships throughout his life. His loyalty and compassion toward others were unfailing. We are so grateful for the 25 years we had with Duncan, and he will be loved and missed every hour of every day.

Duncan leaves behind his parents, Jeanine and George Flint, and his older brother Marsh Flint, as well as aunts, uncles, and cousins. In addition to his family, his many friends and their parents and his work colleagues, will miss him deeply. The family will hold a private service at a later date. Donations in his memory may be directed to The National Great Pyrenees Rescue Inc., www.nationalpyr.org.

George, Jeanine and Marsh - I am so sorry for your loss! I stumbled onto Duncan's obituary yesterday and have been at a loss of words. I feel fortunate to have had a glimpse of your many adventures since meeting George 22+ years ago. I know that I cannot begin to feel or understand all of the emotions that you are going through during this very difficult time! I do hope that my feeling of love, prayers and blessings will provide some comfort.
May Duncan's light forever shine in your hearts,
Rhonda

Jeanine - and all the Flint family - I've thought of the incredible pain you must feel at the moment, but hopefully you're also feeling the love of the many, many people who are thinking of you, praying for you, and wishing we could all take a piece of the burden you carry and help. Duncan is a wonderful young man, and I'm confident that beyond the memories, he is still with you, although unseen he may be. May you feel peace and comfort at this time.
