He worked as a claim supervisor for Country Financial. In his free time, he enjoyed being on a boat in the lake or anything dealing with outdoors.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by an infant brother, Stephen Duncan; sister-in-law, Angie Duncan. Mr. Duncan is survived by his wife of 39 years, Lynn Galbreath Duncan; son, Landon Duncan; daughter, Julia Cregger (Brian); brothers, Jim Duncan (Stephanie) and Kirk Duncan (Jollon); sister, Justine Dillon (Neal); grandchildren, Isaiah Vaughn, Olivia Vaughn, Emary Kinsey, Cameron Kinsey, Tucker Kinsey, Jude Michael Kinsey, Cora Kinsey; several nieces, nephews, and extended family.
