Daniel Lee Yarbrough, also lovingly known as “Duck”, of Cadet, Missouri, was born on October 25, 1972 in Kansas City, MO, a son of the late Freddie and Joan (Cain) Yarbrough. Duck passed away on Friday, May 24, 2024, having reached the age of 51.

In addition to his parents, Duck was preceded in death by his beloved niece, Mariah Gallagher.

Duck loved his family very much, especially his sons and his nieces. He was a social butterfly, always telling tales and stories, and never meeting a stranger. One of his favorite things to do was sending jokes to people on Facebook. He always had a smile, a laugh ready, and enjoyed making other people laugh as well. He was an outdoorsman, enjoying hunting, and especially fishing. Watching his kids play ball was a joy for him. He has had a lot of challenges in his life, overcoming being blind, a kidney transplant, limb removals, and dialysis.

A Visitation will be held Saturday, May 25, 2024, from 10 a.m. until the time of his funeral service at 12 p.m., held at DeClue Funeral Home. Pastor Lloyd Peirce will officiate his service.

DeClue Funeral Home was honored to have served the family of Mr. Duck Yarbrough.
