Woman’s Snowman Collection Inspires Husband’s Christmas Village Tribute

Kathy Allen Duncan, who collected over 1,000 snowman ornaments for 50 years, passed away at 73, prompting her husband, Robert (Tuck) Duncan, to create a Christmas village in her honor at a mall in Topeka, Kansas. This year, for the first time, her entire collection is on display, allowing visitors to experience the joy she brought to others. The display also serves as a tribute to her love for animals, with donations encouraged for local charities in her memory. Duncan finds comfort in seeing people enjoy the village, cherishing the spirit of his late wife during the holiday season.
