Dennis Duncan, GySgt. USMC (Ret)


Received this sad news from a friend of Dennis who has been a participant 
in our communication circle of friends.  I never met him but he had been at 
Ky Ha when we were there and I believe in Hueys.  He has now departed the 
pattern and gone on to better skies.  We'll miss him.

I am a friend of Dennis Duncan and wanted to let you know that he passed away this morning.  Not a cool way to do it but I don't know how to use his computer.

A Quote from Dunc's Bottom Line:
The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are
willing to work and give to those who would not.

Semper Fi
Jan Skeen


I did not serve with this man, this warrior, this Marine this brother mine. Yet for the better part of two years he has been a source of humor, of thoughts given with his Duncs Bottom Line.  He will always be in my thoughts and prayers. May God bless his soul. Below is my tribute to a man of deep honor. 

"We few. We happy few.  We Band of Brothers. For those who shed their blood with us today shall always be our Brothers."
Henry V. Shakespeare 

"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a little better; whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier
because you have lived. This is the meaning of success." 
Ralph Waldo Emerson

With his passing the world is a sadder place this day.  May God hold him 
close.  Taps my friend and hold a spot for me at the final Muster.

Amen - Dennis served with VMO-6 at Ky Ha while we were with 364 and he flew guns with us a number of times. I served with him in HMM-164, a composite outfit at Oki and onboard the ship. We stood shoulder to shoulder a time or two. A good man, a close friend, and a great Marine.

Dennis sent this to me several years ago.  I believe it appropriate for this occasion:

"So if you happen to get "the calling", And you're at the pearly gate,
Remember to listen for those rotors, And look for a squadron mate."

He will be missed ..................
