Mr. Duane Den Hartog, age 72, of Orange City, passed away on Monday, November 29, 2021, at the Crown Pointe Estates Care Center in Sioux Center.

There will be a funeral service on Friday, December 3, at 11:00am, at the First Christian Reformed Church in Orange City. The Rev. Mark Vande Zande and The Rev. Jordan Helming will officiate. Interment will follow the service at the West Lawn Cemetery in Orange City. Visitation with the family will be on Friday, from 10:00am to 11:00am, at the church.

Duane was born on July 3, 1949, in Orange City, the son of Paul and Joan (Boone) Den Hartog. He was raised in Orange City and attended school in Sioux Center. In 2017, he moved to Kosgrove Assisted Living, and in 2019, to Royale Meadows, now Crown Pointe Estates Care Center.

He was a lifelong member of the First Christian Reformed Church of Orange City and loved his church family immensely. He also loved participating in Friendship Bible Study in both Orange City and Sioux Center throughout his adult years. In his younger years, he enjoyed helping in the family business of landscaping and selling Christmas trees. Later, with the help of the Hope Haven Work Training Center, he began working at Double H Manufacturing in Rock Valley and continued working diligently in different capacities until he decided to retire in 2018, after 44 years of faithful work. A proud moment for him! He loved going fishing and on vacations with his family and was an avid follower of the Minnesota Twins and Vikings, the Unity Christian Knights and the Northwestern College Red Raiders.

Survivors include his mother, Joan, of Sioux Center; a brother, Bruce, of Sioux Center; and numerous aunts, uncles, and other extended family.

He was preceded in death by his father, Paul; his brother, Jerry; and his grandparents, Cornelius and Magdeline (De Zeeuw) Den Hartog, and William and Carrie (Ver Steeg) Boone.

Memorials may be directed to the First Christian Reformed Church, the Unity Christian High School building fund, and Sioux Center Hospice.
