Gary Meier, Duluth, passed away at home with his wife, Darla, by his side, on November 20, 2023, their 50th wedding anniversary. Born on March 12, 1945, Gary grew up in Weston, Oregon. In 1963 he made the basketball team of the Oregon Ducks in a walk-on tryout. The Ducks were a lifelong passion and whenever he could see a game on TV, he “ducked up” by wearing Ducks apparel for luck.
