Wilford "Henry" Duran, 59, of Rocky Boy, passed away due to natural causes on Saturday, August 27, 2016, at Northern Montana Care Center.

Henry was born on August 15, 1957, in Fort Belknap to James Dubois, Sr. and Agnes Duran. He was raised in Rocky Boy by Leo and Elizabeth (St. Pierre) Duran, Sr., attending Box Elder schools. Following his school years, he worked for the Hill County Road Crew and for Bear Paw Survey out of Casper, Wyoming. He was also in the Montana Army National Guard for several years. Throughout his adult life, Henry also worked as a cook at various locations, which he thoroughly enjoyed.

He was a fun-loving man who loved cooking, camping, and woodworking, but his favorite pastime was spending time with his beloved family and cooking at Henry's Hut. You knew he liked you if he was joking with you.
