Duane was our mail carrier for
many years. He always went above and beyond to get packages to us especially during the busy holidays. He had a “easy nature†about him. Very upstanding person in the community. Praying for his family and friends.

We will miss seeing you zip around in the CR-V to bring ours and the rest of the world's mail. Like Santa Clause, you sure did a good job of bringing the mail and never missed a beat. How could you manage that and still wave in passing Rest in peace.

Cherish the good memories. Even as far back as high school, Duane was the master of "dry wit". You never knew he was joking until that sly smile crept up on one side of his face. Let's remember that look forever. Rest in Peace Duane.

My condolences to the family. Hoover was a true friend stretching back to the 8th grade I will cherish all my memories with and of him from Yelllville, Denver, Salt Lake and Las Vegas to mention a few places we visited together. We shared many ideas and philosophies about a number of topics. He was always one of the most intelligent people I knew. He will be missed.
