I wonder how close were they, Prince and Duane.....

was Duane some kind of security to Prince, or do I remember this wrong..?

Sad Duane had to leave this earth that early,

R.I.P.

Yes, for a time he was in charge of security at Paisley Park for Prince.....

In 1994. He appointed his older brother, Duane Nelson, to head a five-member committee that would downsize the Paisley Park company.

God I hate that picture of Prince. The 90's were his Charlie Sheen days.

May his bro rest in peace.

I am so sorry to hear of this tremendous loss. 52 is so young.

I hope the Nelson family, and everyone that loved Duane, feels the immense love surrounding them during this difficult time, and that they know that they are not alone.

U don't know Prince like that so how r u going 2 describe his feelings because he is not out there publicly crying n front of u because he has lost a family member or friend. U have no clue how Prince is feeling now and how he handles death.

May God continue 2 bless u and your family Prince during these difficult times.
