It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that the family of Dennis Ray Duhon announces his passing from this life on Nov. 28, 2012, while doing something he loved to do, which was hunting. He was 53 years old. A Mass of Christian burial will be held at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Jennings on Saturday, Dec. 1, 2012, at 11 a.m. in celebration of his life. Dennis will be laid to eternal rest in Istre Cemetery. The Very Reverend Anthony Fontenot will be officiating his funeral mass.

Dennis Ray was born in Kaplan to Donner Trahan Duhon and the late Gary Duhon on March 18, 1959. He worked as a lead operator for Island Operating, Inc. Dennis had a great love for the outdoors. He enjoyed hunting, fishing and golfing. He was a wonderful and loving son, husband, father and friend to many.
