Duane J. “Buckwheat” Puderer, passed away peacefully at the age of 59. A lifelong resident of Gretna, LA, he leaves behind his grieving parents, Gerald and Jaye Puderer, his sister, Martha “Red Bean” Puderer, his nephew, Evan and his beagle, Cleo. His family hopes that you remember Duane and his love of hunting and fishing when he was young and still able. Duane’s final wishes were to have his ashes spread by a creek in Ty Valley where his family once gathered to camp. Memorial services will be held in Oklahoma at a later date. Special thanks to the staff of St. Luke’s Living Center for their care during his final days. Family and friends may view and sign the online guest book at
