Duke was always willing to help anyone out and he never met a stranger. He loved to tease his sisters, sisters-in-law, daughters-in-law and his granddaughter. He enjoyed collecting arrowheads and any outdoor activities. Duke loved the yearly Super Bowl party with his sons and friends. He always rooted for the underdog team, no matter who they were.
