Scott

Duckworth of Fayetteville doted on his baby daughter,

Kerrington Milan, family and friends say.

"He

wanted her to be a star," said Avivah Israel,

Duckworth's mother-in-law.

But, thanks

to a wrong-way driver, Duckworth won't be around to work

for that dream. He died in a head-on crash last week, and

family and friends have set up a trust fund for

Kerrington.

Donations

can be made at any SouthTrust Bank branch. Donors will

receive receipts, said a bank spokesman, but should check

with their advisors about tax deductibility.

More than

500 people attended memorial services for Duckworth at

Fayetteville's Mowell Funeral Home. "I was just

amazed at the outpouring," said Israel. Mourners

gave Duckworth a standing ovation. "I've never seen

that at a funeral," she said.

Describing

her son-in-law as a quiet, unassuming person, she said

his life was devoted to his family. "He devoted his

quality time to his wife and baby," she said, adding

that Duckworth was a friend to all, often playing

basketball with youths in his River's Edge neighborhood.

A fork lift driver for Alliance Foods in Atlanta,

Duckworth received an award from the American Red Cross

several years ago after he saved the life of a drowning

man.

He wasn't

fond of talking about religion overmuch. "He didn't

talk a lot about God, but he exemplified him in his

ways," she added.
