Thanks for this lovely memorial and for helping to celebrate Duane's life!

I saw the Quilt fully displayed in Washington DC during the March on Washington in 1993. That was quite an experience! The sheer enormity of it really brought home the enormity of human suffering the epidemic was causing.

But the epidemic also brought out the best in people like Duane, and that's worth remembering.
