PRECIOUS
MEMORIES:
Eloy Conrad
Duran III Came into this world on November 10, 1984.
Things were
good, never better ...Two young people in love and ready to start a new life
together with a beautiful big baby......We called him our "Michelin
Man" because he had ripples on his Ripples.
He was
named after his paternal grandfather and his Father, to carry on our proud name
and Heritage. We knew he was someone very special from the very
beginning.....he was very curious, and asked questions 24/7, persisting an
answer to these questions , Right now !!!
Inquistiive,
caring, thoughtful, honest, trustworthy, at anyones beckoning...in an
instant...Committed to family tradition and values were his best traits. He
stuck up for father more than once, even at the age of 5 years old telling the
cashier...she had "better watch out.".
If life
were measured by how much a person truly cares about humanity and all living
things!! ......."He Ranks at the Top"!!!. Just knowing Conrad was
around brought ,"Solace" to anyone he was with. He was able to bring
out the best, and Shine with whom ever he was with even with the smallest of
funds.
When he
walked into a room his "Aura" filled that room, Standing 6 ft.
2ins.,"Strong, Giving, and Handsome". His Smile like a "Ray of
Sunshine"... He definitely was the "Tower of Strength" to
his" only child...he called her "Baby Girl", DESIRAE...
He
Cherished every day of his life...giving of himself 100%. He made friends every
where he went because of his gentle demeanor...and had many, many friends. HE
attended many schools in Denver and was well liked by everybody. His size may
have been a bit intimidating, but once you knew him he was" THE SWEETEST
PERSON IN THE WORLD."..
Conrad was
only 25 Years Young...he had a great life, and a great life ahead of him as a
Father, Son, Brother, Grandson, Cousin, Nephew and Friend. He was so happy
looking forward to a Long, Loving, Prosperous life with Desirae and spoiling
his angel baby. Promising her a puppy soon, [as soon as he got a back yard for
her to play in.]
His
childhood was spent alot with his paternal grandfather & grandmother.
Conrad enjoyed the outdoors,fishing, camping.rusticating to the mountains, to
the Home Ranch in Weston,colo..riding horses,[ hunting in later years.] He and
grandpa were best of " buds" loving every moment of, going to Dennys
or Village Inn for coffee and flirting with the waitress'.
In 1997 his
grandpa passed away and he took it very hard, [and it showed.] At age 18 he met
Angie who was15, they got together and one year later they were parents. He was
a devoted Dad, The sun and moon rose and set on Desirae. She would giggle as he
rised her high above his 6 foot 2 inches. She adored her "DaDa".
On JANUARY
03, 2010 his life was taken away by a Senseless, Heinous, Horrific Murder...By
a gang of corrupt, contemptuous, irresponsible, felonious, zombies with no
regard for human life. Desirae, Conrads 5-year old Daughter was left without
her "Da-Da". His close-knit family are all grieving the passing of a
Larger than Life, Compassionate, Caring, devoted father. We pray for his soul
and that he rest in peace.
WE WILL
NEVER FORGET YOUR LOVE FOR LIFE AND HUMANITY...WE LOVE YOU CONRAD ELOY DURAN
III...
