Duwayne Hougo must have been an pretty amazing man to have raise such a beautifully natured family with whom I had the joy of spending very precious time with during the days of this chapter in his life were complete and before his new journey of life began. He will be surely missed and absolutely loved and most definitely celebrated. I am truly grateful his wishes were honored to spend his final moments surrounded by love.
