Marie Roberta Duke, lovingly known as "Re Re", passed away on May 17th, 2023 at Saline Memorial Hospital in Benton, Arkansas. She was 60 years old. Marie was born on February 10th, 1963 in Benton, Arkansas to Nettie and John Duke. She grew up in Benton and attended Benton High School, where she graduated in 1981.

One of Marie's greatest joys in life was spending time with her beloved daughter, Coco, and her entire family. She cherished every moment they shared together, creating beautiful memories and deepening their bonds of love and support.

Marie had a special connection with nature and found solace in outdoor activities. She had a passion for the lake, enjoying fishing and rock hunting. Marie possessed a green thumb and took great pleasure in nurturing her plants, which flourished under her care, bringing beauty to her surroundings. She also had a fondness for the beach, relishing the tranquility it provided and delighting in discovering treasures along the shore.
Above all else, Marie's devotion to her daughter, Coco, was unparalleled. Her love for Coco knew no bounds and their time spent together was cherished above all else.

Marie will be lovingly remembered and deeply missed by her daughter, Coco Rhodes, who resides in Benton, Arkansas. She is also survived by her brothers, John Duke, Vincent Duke (Lorri), Mark Duke (Kathy), Mike Duke (Stephanie) and brother-in-law, Ralph Brown, along with her extended family members and dear friends. Marie is preceded in death by her parents; Brother, Bobby Duke and Sister, Darlene Brown.

During this time of grief, let us remember the joy Marie brought to our lives, the love she shared with her family and the beautiful memories she leaves behind. May her soul find eternal peace and may her loved ones find solace in the precious moments they shared with her.
