I'm so sorry for the loss of such a sweet loving man. God called another angel home.

Duane was a real life hero. We were honored to know him. He loved his family so much and will continue to live in your hearts. Love, Ron and Pam
I left Vietnam in January 1970. A few months later, I received a letter from Tubby stating that a rocket had hit our Wolfpack tent and we lost four of our soldiers.That was the last I heard from anyone until 1988. At this time I received a phone call from Tubby saying "Angie (my nickname in Vietnam), I have been looking for you for 20 years.. It sent chills through my body. Since then we have all become close friends. You see, Tubby was my gunner when our helicopter was shot down in Vietnam on Thanksgiving Day 1969. Every Thanksgiving we think about that horrible nightmare. I was lucky enough to have Tubby and Debbie visit me in California three years ago and also go on an Alaskan cruise with them in 2012 to celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary. Tubby, I love you brother and I miss you! I will never forget you and we will stay close to Debbie.
It was an honor and a blessing to know Duane and I will always have fond memories of the times we got together. My prayers are with you all.
Debbie, Stacey, Melissa and families. I am sorry for your loss. Duane was a great guy. The memories we made when we all lived in the Twin Cities and the trips we made back there after we moved back to ND will live on for ever. May God sustain you, comfort you and give you peace until we all meet again in Heaven. God Bless. Earleen
Duane was a Great man. We will miss Duane but we have Great memories of him. Deb we will always be here for you. We Love you Both an always will.Daryl & Robin Reed

I've only met you (both) a few time, but found myself admiring the folks that you were, and the love that showed between you both. I'm sure Duane's loss is heavy on your soul. Be thankful that you had your time together. Many souls do not find that mate. (I too, miss mine.)
