I have known Duane and his family since I was in Second Grade. I have many wonderful memories of Duane growing up in Laurel Lake of the beach, cycle riding and tarzan swings, etc. I was blessed to visit with him before he passed and also pray with him. I am confident that he is in the Lord's hands along with my mom. I am so sorry for your loss and my heart goes out especially to Kathy his mother who is battling this disease as well and also has now lost both children. I am so sorry Mom Duffy.
