Robert "Rob" Paul Duhon, Jr. Obituary (1974

Robert “Rob” Paul Duhon, Jr., age 51, of Russellville, passed away on Wednesday, September 24, 2025, at St. Mary’s Regional Medical Center. A private family committal service was held in the Chapel of Light, with cremation arrangements entrusted to J. Herman Humphrey Dignity Cremation Center under the direction of Humphrey Funeral Service. Born on April 8, 1974, in Little Rock, Arkansas, Rob was the beloved son of Robert, Sr. and Sandra Jean (Thompson) Duhon. Rob is lovingly remembered by his parents; his daughter, Emily Duhon of Conway; two grandchildren, Connor Burnworth and Aiden Duhon, both of Conway; his brother, Scott Duhon of Dardanelle; his fiancée, Rosanna Rigdon of Russellville; and his bonus daughter, Devin Crystal of Russellville. Though born totally blind, Rob experienced a miracle of partial restoration of sight in childhood. He attended the Arkansas School for the Blind through his junior year before graduating from Dardanelle High School in 1993. His perseverance and love for technology led him to meaningful work with computers and as a Call Center Agent with Goodyear, where he worked from home. Rob’s faith in God guided his life. A licensed Baptist minister, he poured his heart into serving his church, especially through its food pantry ministry. He also found joy in music—playing his guitar and listening to classics from the 70s and 80s—and was known for his skill in computer games. Rob will be remembered for his resilience, his deep faith, and his devotion to family. His kindness, a quick wit, and a quiet strength touched many lives.
