WATERFRONT LIVING
THE DURDEN RESIDENCE
charitable fundraisers, and recently the launching of the run for o ce by Congressman Neal Dunn, M.D.
Earl Durden was very proud of the nished product and often remarked about the vision that was accomplished and how amazed he was that his wife knew "where each stick of furniture was to be placed" on the day they moved in. When he passed away in 2010, son Michael and Karen created The Durden Foundation to support prostate cancer research in his memory.
Today, the slumbering marble lions guarding the entry witness much new life and laughter. Karen’s sons visit often with their signi cant others. Daughter-in-law Adrianne, a busy Realtor, and 3-year old grandson are frequent visitors. His toys are often scattered across the great room and grounds. After mass on Sundays, the family spends time kayaking, paddle boarding, hosting swim parties, cookouts, and always looks forward to the next holiday celebration.
