I am sorry to hear this. I just loved Mr Duffy. He was an incredible teacher and integral part of the Niwot High School Community. Sending lots of prayers.

I had the privlidge of working with Doug during my time at Northeast Jr High in Longmont many years ago. He was a phenomenal teacher and possesed such a vibrant spirit. Being a former teacher myself it's evident when a teacher loves their job as their students love them and can't wait for class. Today I was truly saddened to read this and my thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends . I thoroughly enjoyed working with him.

Dear family of Doug,It was my honor to be a coaching colleague of Dougs, as I coached cross country at Boulder High School. We had many opportunities to talk and share our philosophy about coaching, and I appreciated his intent to use the sport experience to build a healthy community of young people and teach lifelong lessons through running. He was an educator, who made deep impacts on the Niwot community. Monique Guidry

I just remember every spirit week leading up to the homecoming football game, mr Duffy and mr Burton would always have the contest of who had the best Hawaiian shirt. He was always so uplifting and supportive as a coach and as an educator. A wonderful man gone way too soon. May god rest his soul. Once a cougar always a cougar.

I was trying to look up Coach Duffy tonight because I’ve thought a lot about him the last couple of months. I’m so sorry to hear he’s passed on. I was part of his XC team at Niwot. He used to always tell us to “pull out your sword!” During our training runs and races. On a couple of high-stakes races, when we knew the course, he would give us each a small army man toy. Then he’d have us run the course and place our warriors at the spot we struggled the most. This was to remind us to pull out our swords. I went back after each race and collected those men. I keep them always. When I’m going through a hard time in life, I keep it in my purse so I see it and remember to fight now like I did then. I am so grateful for his impact on me. I will forever remember him.
