Sad to learn this morning that one of my favorite men in the sport has passed away due to a heart attack. I really got to know Duane back when he was traveling the road with son Brian hauling ol' Beaver Lake Magic around the country. I was hunting a young dog off Magic so it was an instant connection for me.

Later Duane went to work for Imperial Trophy so we became even closer and I had the chance to visit with him alot. Just a great man. Quiet and respectful with the best sense of humor. Sincere thoughts and prayers for Duane's family and friends.
