Michael “Pacaw” Edward Duncan, 62, passed away peacefully on April 6, 2021 at his residence in Bartlebaugh, after a long battle with cancer, surrounded by family and friends. 

Mike was an owner/operator for Noble Transport, and loved driving his big truck around the country. He was a great father, and the best Pacaw to his grandkids, as they could do no wrong. Mike had a huge heart and helping people was his passion, even if they were strangers. His smile was contagious. He enjoyed going to the casino, playing pool, fishing, watching Nascar, or grilling for family and friends. Wherever we wanted to go or do, he was all-in for the adventure.

Mike is preceded in death by his father, Bud (Linda) Duncan;  sister, Pam; two brothers, Tombill and Randy; and daughter, Brandy. 
He is survived by his wife, Belinda Back; mother, Shirley Colston; daughters, Amber (Jason), Tabitha (Jeremy) and Kristie; and son, Caleb. He is also survived by nine granddaughters, Savanna, Shelley, Alley, Camrin, Chloe, Calynn, Clara, Delaney and Delilah; grandson, Kaden; three great-grandsons, Isaiah, Sawyer and Lincoln; several aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and cousins; and special lifelong friend/brother, Jimmy “RoRo” Rose.

The family will receive friends on Monday, April 12, from 4:30-7:30 p.m., with the funeral directly following at Companion Funeral Home in Cleveland, with Brother Ron Gilbert officiating.

The family would like to give a special thanks to Mitch’s, Trish’s, and Hospice of Chattanooga. He will be missed and remembered by many. “Alright then”
