Duane O Wilson
Obituary
Duane was born on January 05, 1944 in Toppenish, WA to Duane and Murial (Mickie) Wilson. He earned a Master's Degree in Physics from San Jose State University and was an inventor and high tech engineer for 52 years in Silicon Valley. He married Debbi in 1982 and together they raised three daughters, Julie, Heather and Callie.
Duane had a passion for knowledge and building with his own hands. Over the years he built the off-the-grid home that he and Debbi lived in and many engines for fast cars and boats. As a man of faith, he wrote a book exploring Creation and Cosmology through a scientific lens. Duane was known for his fierce independence, his technical and mechanical know-how and being there for the ones he loved.
Duane is survived by his wife, Debbi Wilson, his three daughters, Julie Yetso, Heather Oliver and Callie Damsgaard, his seven grandchildren, Jordan and Madeline Williams, Treston Yetso, Seth and Sage Oliver, Magnolia and Greta Damsgaard and his two brothers, Kevin Wilson and Duane Wilson (Peanuts).
