Durk was a wonderful husband, father, and grandfather. He loved his Jeep, motorcycles, and anything that had an engine. Durk was an amazing mechanic, with an amazing sense of humor, and he was always willing to lend a hand or mechanical advice to anyone in need. Due to his kind-hearted nature, Durk never met a stranger. He will be greatly missed.
