About Duff
Duff is originally from Ohio but has been at SIUE pretty much forever. He is a husband, father to two adult children and 4 dogs, loves to cook, motorcycle, and do woodwork, and is a co-founder of the non-profit Holly’s House of Hope where he creates apprenticeships for adults with cognitive disabilities, writes grants, and cuts the grass.
Duff does not even own a cell phone, but as an old guy, at least you can find him on Facebook.
