So sorry to hear of my brothers passing. My name is Lorine Latimer and I live in Michigan. I would have deeply wanted to attend the funeral but travel is difficult for me. I was always very proud of Duard, he was a good man. I will miss him and know that he is in restfull peace. To the family Mark, Becky and Bonnie, my condolences, we all will have memories that will come back and comfort us..
Love to All, Sincerely, Lorine Latimer & Family
