Upon his release from the Navy, Duayne married Venna Nellie Goodrich December 18, 1945. Duayne and Venna had five children, Michael (June), Karla (Wayne) Williamson, Don (Carey), Andrew (Caryn), and Theodore (Cindy).
In 1983, Venna lost a long battle with cancer and preceded Duayne in death. On October 12, 1991, Duayne married Doris Ann Moore and became a father to Debbie (Duane) Harvey, Greg (Kristin) Fenn, and two deceased daughters, Pamela Ann Fenn and Danette Fenn.
Duayne was very active in the LDS Church and in his community. He served as bishop of the Granger 4th Ward, stake president of the Granger West Stake, and temple worker in the Jordan River Temple. He served as a representative in the Utah Legislature from 1979 to 1984.

Duayne is survived by his wife, Doris Ann Johnson; seven children; 28 grandchildren; 10 great grandchildren; sisters, Ione Simpson and Wanda Wasden. He was preceded in death by his parents; three sisters; two brothers; and by his first wife, Venna.
Duayne was a strong, kind, and faithful man, who was loved and admired by many; especially by his family, who will remember his advice, his stories, his singing, his infectious laugh, and the many wonderful times at the ranch and cabin. He will be dearly missed! Funeral services held Wednesday, September 22, 2004 at the Granger West 4th Ward, 3305 South 3960 West. Interment, Valley View Memorial Park.
