To all of us, Duke, was the true essence of a loving father guiding his children. We called him the “Best Dad in the World”.

He is survived by his wife, Laura Baron Grazier, and their beautiful children; parents, Victoria and Dr. John Savino, all of Watertown, NY, as well as his loving family across the world.
