Many of you will remember Duke, he was very involved with Tom Harris Auctions (Tom’s right hand), Antique Shows as well as being an auction bidder at auctions around Iowa; we lost our good friend to cancer early this year. He had an eclectic and extended collection of antiques, collectibles, books, unusual items and tennis rackets. Some of the special things about Duke that I admired was that he never would say a bad word about another person, if you were having a bad day he did what he could to bring humor into your day or to give an encouraging word, he was always willing to help other people learn about or get involved in the antique world. He was private about himself but was ready to listen to other people’s problems or concerns and to do what he could to help. A truly nice man whom many are missing and wishing that they could have learned more from while we had him here to share his knowledge with us. He liked his coffee strong, his food well cooked, enjoyed his friends and truly loved auctions. We will miss him.
