    I am looking for Bill Duncan.  I saw the band every time they came to London Ontario.

    My mom Lorna hd a close relationship with Bill Duncan and I was wondering if he

    was still alive.  I loved all their music and performances.  I thought they were amazing!

    Hope to hear from you - Anita
