It is so sad to lose such a nice guy as Duncan.Duncan was one of the best liked and dependable workers at Kean gas.Working outside in the toughest conditions he was always nice to the customer and helpful to his co-workers.I can imagine the happy reunion with his loving parents and of course his buddy Big Ed.One of the good guys who will be missed.

My deepest sympathy to the Black family. I knew Duncan and his late father for many years. When I purchased my first Harley, Duncan was there to assist me. I've watched Duncan overcome many challenges during his short life to become a fine young man that will be greatly missed by us all.

I can remember giving you $20.00 toward your Harley fund for your Birthday; You couldn't wait to get a bike.
I remember hanging out at your house in Mt. Greenwood on those lazy days of summer.
I've only seen you a few times since then, but I want to let you know I'm glad I knew you.
Those days still bring a smile to my face.
My thoughts and prayers are with your family.
Take care. I'll see you again one day.
