Biographie
After his naval service he pursued a career in masonry and construction. An automobile accident in 1966 left Duncan a paraplegic, but this certainly didn't stop him. Upon release from the rehab centre, he advertised his skills for employment and thus began a very successful career with A&A Plumbing and Heating, first as an employee then as part owner. In the late '80's Duncan retired to a life of his idea of leisure; first building a house in Whistler BC and later renovating a cabin on Gabriola Island.
