Duke was a very quiet but observant man. He had a lifetime of quite memorable happenings. Duke touched the lives of his family and friends in different ways, by his love, kindness, friendship and loyalty. His sons will deeply miss him. He loved his woodworking, yard work (lawn mowing), spending time at family gatherings, playing cards and playing gameboy games. He enjoyed spending time with his grandchildren and great grandchildren. Duke & Frieda have had a lifetime of precious times together and those memories will be cherished always. WE ALL LOVED HIM AND WILL MISS HIM!Great Grandchildren: Melcina Marie, Brittany, Kendra Knapp; Abigail, Joshua Luke; Pattie Schmitt, Jerald Faulkner, Patrick Klein |
