Duane Atkinson Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Born: 8/12/1958 Passed 6/30/2025
Duane loved to play hard!! He enjoyed everything outside.
His best times were Fishing-Boating-Archery-Yard games- Ping Pong- Dirty bikes, ATV & Talon.
If you knew Duane you knew his family, friends and pets. He loved his Dogs!
Duane had a stroke in August of 2023 which took a lot out of him & slowed him down.
It was hard to see him start to depend on help to move around. But he was determined not to seek help!
The stubborn Atkinson way.
He caught COVID in June of 2025 which led to his death.
It was very difficult to see him fight so hard but unfortunately Covid won.
Duane would want all of you to raise a glass -share a story
(we know he had a lot of stories out there)
Remember the GOOD times we all shared.
Rest in peace D
