Goodbye Uncle Duane, I will always remember you and my dad horsing around at Grandmother Godfrey's house before she met Roy. Your sweet smile and generous laugh, and the stories you would share – I can't remember the stories any more, but I can see you telling them. You loved to tell a good story. And how you loved to tease us and your lovely wife, Beverly! Thank you for coming to my mother's funeral. I'm sorry I can't be there with Cheryl and Dee and Beverly but I know there will be many folks there to comfort them. Farewell Uncle Duane, love, Meg Godfrey.

I had the wonderful pleasure of meeting Mr.Godfrey in 1981 when I met Cheryl in Dental Hygiene School, I became re-acquainted with he and his beautiful wife at a holiday gathering shortly after losing my mother, With his endearing smile and infectious laugh time stood still and I immediately felt included and loved in his family. The daughter I know and love today is a strong, courageous and independent woman because of the role model example set by her father. The world is a sadder place without him but oh what a gain for heaven. We love and miss you Mr.Godfrey but will see you someday at heaven's gate. Lisa Attaway

Thank you Uncle Duane for being a great uncle. One of my fondest memories of you was when you would come down to San Antonio for work and we would go out for dinner. We would talk and laugh the entire night. I always had a wonderful time. I always wished we could do it more often. Thank you for looking out for us after our father died. You will be missed. Love Sue

I am grateful to have known him, a good, kind and loyal man. He always made an effort to connect and share news and chat about life, the extended family and his current fascination with investing and the Godfrey family tree. So sorry not to be able to have more time and conversations with him. My love to all his family, Aunt Beverly, Cousins Cheryl (and husband Hal and their children) and Duane, Jr. Love and peace to you all in this time of letting go. John Godfrey, Austin, Texas.

For me, Uncle Duane represented a man of God, Family and Love. He was the kindest person I have known. He always had a smile on his face and a kind word. Thinking of him reminds me of all our family gatherings in Grandmothers house and backyard, making homemade ice cream, going to church and holiday meals as a family, and, especially his backyard 4th of July Fireworks every year!! He enjoyed life. I thank him for being there for us when my father passed away. He and Aunt Bev would call me each year to sing Happy Birthday to me. I wish I had told I'm how much that meant to me! I will miss him. :(. He was one of a kind. His niece Gail

Bev and Family: So sorry to hear about Duane. As soon as I told Pat we started thinking back to the early days. The Trip we took to the lake pulling the boat behind the 1960 Falcon. This got you and Duane the boat bug and you bought the Yellow Jacket. Duane hired me to take his place as the cost accountant at PK. Who would have thought I would have stayed there 50 years. Duane had a special place in my heart and I will never forget him. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and family. God Bless you all. Love Bill and Pat Perry
