‘Dallas’ star Patrick Duffy recalls night shotgun-wielding teens murdered his parents at Montana bar

Patrick Duffy recalled the horrific night his parents were gunned down at their Montana bar 40 years ago — and how he coped with the devastating loss. Terence and Marie Duffy kicked out two teens from their bar in Boulder for getting drunk and causing trouble on Nov. 18, 1986, only for the young men to return armed with shotguns. “It was very late at night,” the “Dallas” star, 77, said of the scene while on Steve Kmetko’s “Still Here Hollywood” podcast Monday. “There was nobody in the bar except my father and my mother. And they walked in with their shotguns.” Patrick Duffy opened up about the 1986 murders of his parents at their Montana bar by two teenagers. Still Here Hollywood Podcast w/ Steve Kmetko Terence stepped toward the 19-year-olds, Sean Wentz and Kenneth A. Miller, and said, “I told you to—” That’s when they opened fire, Patrick said, citing testimony from the 1987 murder trial. Marie, who had been working on a crossword puzzle at the other end of the bar, rushed toward her husband and was also shot and killed.

Here’s what the experts say: When will we see the first frost in Washington state? When you can expect to see frost in 2026 depends on where you live in Washington state , according to the Old Farmer’s Almanac . The almanac looked at likely dates for the first and last frosts of the season , based on its long-range weather forecasts as well as historical frost averages. In much of Western Washington, frost timing should be “close to the historical average ,” the almanac said, while the last spring frost is expected roughly a week or two later than usual in Central and Eastern Washington. Even “modest” shifts in frost timing can “make a meaningful difference when you’re deciding when to sow early crops, set out seedlings or keep frost protection handy,” the Old Farmer’s Almanac said.
