Lary Duncan was a true ambassador of the Boer Goat breed. Whether it be as a breeder, fitter, mentor, or CEO, Lary influenced everyone he came in contact with and was a true innovator and leader for the industry. Alongside his brother Gary and sister-in-law Sandy, he founded Able Acres Boer Goats, which grew into one of the most respected herds in the nation. Never content with good enough, he even developed his own line of goat feed for Show-Rite - a formula that continues to be sold today and likely still carries a bit of Lary's trademark precision.   Lary served as CEO of the American Boer Goat Association from 2015-2020. His leadership, vision, and persistence helped elevate the organization to new heights and his influence is still felt to this day. He was a man of immense intelligence, drive, and loyalty - one who expected excellence from himself and those around him. Yet beneath that pursuit of perfection was a dry wit, a generous spirit, and love for his family, his animals, and his community.
