Larry Duncan

 Larry Duncan, age 78, passed away September 18, 2026. Born in Pulaski,
Tn, Larry was the son of Earnest and Mae Duncan.
        Larry married the love of his life, Sandra Beard Duncan, almost sixty
years ago. They always had each other’s back and you rarely saw one
without the other. They raised their son, Larry “Bo” Duncan is Prospect,
Tn, where Larry and Bo shared many memories hunting, fishing and
farming. He never missed a ballgame of his grandson, Weston Duncan; and
welcomed Abigail into the family as if she had always been there.
        From an early age, Larry had a taste of excitement. From drag racing to
cruising, there was not much that didn’t turn into an adventure for him.
        He learned the value of hard work early in life, working as a bag boy
at the local grocery. He served as butcher at CEE BEE Grocery for
decades, eventually purchasing the store. But it wasn’t just about
business. The store became a way for Larry to take care of his
community. He was a compassionate leader who treated his employees like
family and believed in doing right by all. He served as a member of the
Giles County School Board and the Tarpley Shop Water Board.
        Earnest Larry Duncan was preceded in death by his parents Earnest Frank
Duncan and Roxie Mae Martin Duncan.
        He is survived by his wife of nearly 60 years, Sandra Duncan, son
Earnest Larry Duncan, II, and grandson Weston Duncan and wife Abigail.
He is also survived by many cousins, friends and neighbors who will
remember him as the life of the party, always smiling, laughing and
making everyone around him feel welcome.
