Duane, or more affectionately "Corky", was born on August 10, 1933 to Floyd & Mamie (King) Breinig on a farm southwest of Arapahoe, Nebraska. Duane graduated from Arapahoe High School in 1950. On February 28, 1954, Duane married the love of his life, Barbara Land at the Arapahoe Methodist Church. To this union, four children were born Steve, Vickie, Scott and Wendy. He served in the United States Navy from 1955 until 1957 as a communications officer. Upon returning home to Arapahoe, he farmed and lived on the home place until spring of 2010. Due to poor health, he moved to Holdrege to live with daughter Wendy and her family and then later to Holdrege Memorial Homes until the time of his death. Farming and his family were most important to Duane. He was no stranger to hard work and long hours working the land. Custom harvesting was special to Duane so much so that he would have rather been deep in a wheat field than on a five-star cruise. He enjoyed Husker football games and traveled with his wife and family to many regular season and bowl games. A bright spot for Duane was his grandchildren, and he proudly supported them in their many activities. He was a member of the Arapahoe Christian Church, where he served as a deacon for many years. Duane was preceded in death by: his parents; wife, Barbara; brother, Charles; sister, Eula Faye (Fritz) McCoy; sister-in-laws, Earline (and husband Bob) Kruse; Shirley (and husband Leo) Tawzer and June Breinig.
