John was born November 8, 1963 in Peoria, Illinois to Thomas and Patricia Skinner Duncan. John graduated from Bryan High School in Bryan where he excelled in the Thespian Society and ROTC.

John was united in marriage to the love of his life, Joanna McCrary on May 7, 1995. They shared many adventures, including John’s passion for motorcycle riding and serving his community through Acts Church. He enjoyed many trips on his motorcycle to Daytona, Sturgis, the Natchez Trace, Colorado, the Pacific Northwest, the Bonneville Salt Flats, and of course to the Texas Hill Country. Along their faith journey, they visited Belize in 2013 with 10th Leper and Israel in 2019.

John served as the sound engineer and road manager for 10th Leper, a Waco based Christian Rock and Blues band. Some of his greatest joys were the weekends the band played at Church Under the Bridge, Blessing of the Bikes and toy runs benefiting Project Angel Tree and Ride for the Troops.
