I can´t believe it´s been a whole year since Mr. Duncan passed. You've been in my thoughts and prayers. I hope you´re doing well. Your dad was such a man of wisdom and I can´t help but smile whenever I think of him. Always remember, those we love don´t go away, they walk beside us every day. Unseen, unheard, but always near; still loved, still missed and very dear. I hope you find some happiness today, Raquel, Family and Staff.

I am truly going to miss my ' story-telling' friend. He was an awesome individual who cared so much about people. He was 'hard-core' but yet so kind, truthful, sometimes sensitive but for REAL. My heart aches but I know that he's in a better place. Probably sharing ' his stories' with the Heavenly Father'.

RaQual, how blessed you were to have had a father who absolutely loved you. As long as you remember that, your days will be filled with what he represented.

I love you.

To The Duncan family, it is so hard to hold back my tears of a man who showed me so much. He taught me how to speak in front of people and most of all he had so much trust in me. Between him and his grandfather Mr Carroll I took all that they had showed me and taught me and I bought it up to Washington DC. I don't really want to make a long out speech but Billy I'm going to miss you and happiest part of all of this that I will see you in the morning may God bless your daughter and the rest of the family and friends of Carroll's Mortuary.45years we knew each other.
