My deepest sympathies to all of the family. I greatly enjoyed my visits from Duncan when he came into HR to say hi and ask questions as a retiree. A truly lovely man.

I thought of Uncle Duncle all weekend long as I unpacked my Hallmark moving boxes. I feel so lucky to have such great memories of being up north every New Years Eve in Haliburton, always wondering if Dunc and my dad would manage to light the ENTIRE box of fire works all at once again this year, sending everyone diving into the closest snowbank available. Sending all my love and hugs and good thoughts to you on this very difficult day Auntie Vonne, Adam and Craig. Love Megs.

Our friendship with Duncan and Yvonne started in 1968. They were Best Man and Maid of Honor at our wedding in 1970. Our friendship has been very unique and lasting. They became a special "Uncle and Aunt" to our daughters Sara and Rebecca.

My sincerest apologies and condolences go out to the entire Burn and to the extended families.
I have such wonderful and loving memories of Duncan and I will treasure them always...
Adam, Craig and Yvonne: The measure of your Dad, and husband will not be of his illness or how he passed, but how he lived, for the lives he touched, for what he gave to others, and the precious moments, you will treasure with him always.
Love always,

I was so sorry to hear of the passing of my good friend and co-worker. He was a wonderful man and he was a great friend as well. I share in your grief at our sad loss. I will never forget all that he did for me at Hallmark. I never heard an ill word spoken of him. He was kind, compassionate, and a true gentleman. Sadly there are few people like that in the world today. I could never repay all the laughter he brought to my days at Hallmark and when he use to come for his visits after he retired. I extend my sympathy to your entire family and to let you all know how much we share in your pain at this sad time. In Friendship & Sorrow,
Peggy Bargery

Passing on my condolences to Yvonne and family.
Unfortunately, I will be out of town and miss the services.
I wanted to share a Hallmark moment, Duncan and I chuckled for many years that I was his first management hire, February 1980, which he reminded me many times over the years how much he questioned his decision making.
I always congratulated him on wisdom to hire the right stuff!! as 6 months later he hired in Swinson.
We all know how that worked out particularly for Ivan and Joe.
Duncan was a truly loyal good comrade.
We will all miss him!!!

I'm so sad to hear of Duncan's passing. He was my manager for almost 10 years as I started my Human Resource career at Hallmark Cards and I will always remember him as one of the most genuine human beings I have ever met. He truly was a gentleman. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family Yvonne at this very difficult time.

Yvonne and family,
I am so very sad to hear of Duncan's passing. Duncan was such a fantastic mentor, boss and friend over the years. There wasn't a day that went by where he didn't talk about his family and it was very apparent how much he loved all of you.
"Dunc the hunk" as he was fondly known, will live on forever in our hearts.
Hugs to all of you.
Take care,
Lotte
