Mr. Dupin was born and raised in Eastview, Kentucky. He was a 1950 graduate of Lynnvale High School. He opted to pass on a scholarship in basketball to Lindsay Wilson College to marry his sweetheart, Edith. They worked the family farm along-side his father and mother enabling to purchase their first home in Stephensburg where they welcomed their first child one year thereafter. The house eventually became the home of Edith's parents, Alonzo and Dollie Nugent. He was a hard-working businessman and carpenter. He single handedly built 4 of the family's five homes and had a passion for all projects in home improvement, landscaping and as a collector. He started at Western Auto in 1952 where he worked over 30 years initially changing batteries working his way up to management and eventually ownership. He and Edith retired to Florida and most recently he moved back to Elizabethtown residing with his daughter, husband and Jake, beloved family pet. The family is forever appreciative for the love and support of their dear father, brother and grandfather. In particular we are especially thankful Dad found love in his later years with Ms. Trudy Ghiraldi. She was the light of his life and gave Dad a reason to keep going.
