He will be remembered for his kind heart and crazy personality. He was always wanting to make his friends & family laugh. Duane was a cook by trade and loved to feed an army.
Later in life Duane found the love and comfort with a family that cared for him and kept him safe. The Beaver family will be forever thankful to Dawn & Dan Krupa along with their family: Andre & Gloria Crosby, their son Andre (who adored Duane and called him DuDu) and Alexis.
Duane was survived by his son Trevor Beaver and sister Melinda Gudme as well as many nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts, uncles, in-laws and great nephews & nieces.
He was preceded in death by his parents Donald & Carrie Beaver, his brothers Phillip Jacobs & Daniel Beaver Sr. and his brother-in-law Kent Gudme.
Duane was a proud member of the Six Nations Reservation in Brantford, Ontario, Canada and will be laid to rest with his parents there.
