I'm so sorry, He will be so missed. It was so much fun growing up with Uncles so close in age to me. I have great memories when Uncle Duane would come to our house. He helped our dad with chores on many occasions. And I can still see him and Uncle Dick using broom as guitars and singing to us. We all have been so privileged to be family. Keep the music going, and he will live in every note played. Prays for you all. Donna Peyok
