- On the eve of the 50-year anniversary of Pete Duel’s passing, his brother Geoff remembers in this clip from our 2015 memorial documentary. For the entire documentary, please visit The Geoff Deuel Store at GeoffDeuel.info. Thank you.
I was 13 when he died, and I was devastated. He and Geoff looked so much alike, they could have been twins.
I met Geoff in the late ‘70s when I was a kid. His family had a cottage on the same lake as mine in 🇨🇦. He was a nice guy, but you could tell he was grieving the death of his brother. He told me he lost many roles in Hollywood because he wanted answers to why his brother took his life. I felt quite bad for him.
You can still see the pain on his face in this interview.
I was 12 when Pete Duel sadly took his own life in 71. Couldn’t understand back then as he seemed so happy when he was in Alias Smith & Jones. You can still see the hurt in his brother’s face when he was talking about him. RIP Pete Duel you were much loved.
I was 9 when he passed and I cried myself to sleep for weeks asking God to bring him back and take me instead, I remember how I felt to this day. I am so like Pete, it's uncanny ie. caring too much and doubting myself and wanting to change so many things in the world especialy preservation of the environment and my love for animals. All these years later I am still plagued with depression. I totally and utterly get how he felt and his thought processes, I am so very like him. It's a very painful existence being me and I would take the same way out to end my pain but I am not brave enough so I continue to suffer and cry every day for myself and the world and I am 60 now. After all these years I still adore him and the WORLD misses him so very much. There will never be anyone like him ever again
Remember him with Joy
I hope you are still here and wishing you well from the uk
I am 62 and still think of both of them often, especially Pete, he was an important part of my childhood
Thank you Geoff. I know this was hard for you because as deep and hurtful Pete's loss is to us fans it has to be a thousand times worse for you and Pamela. Thank you for sharing your memories, your pain and heart with us. God bless you and your wife. ❤️❤️❤️ Pete:always in our thoughts and ❤️.
We love Pete, and we love you Geoff. Its very bittersweet.
Pete was so talented. He was ambitious and didn't reach his goals. Hollywood is not a place for people who care about their talent.
Feel so sad watching this, both handsome, loving brothers, torn apart by such a tragedy. 😢
the world lost a beautiful soul that day in 71 and is still deeply missed today
Sometimes life can be so cruel. And very unexplanable. A great young who went to soon and a younger brother who lives his life as best he can. Peace to Pete and peace to Geoff. This is a testament for us all.
What a horrible shame and loss. I was 12 when he died and of course, like many others, I was devastated. He made his Heyes character so lovable and endearing that no one could replace him and it should not have been attempted. I'm sorry for the pain his family has endured and I hope that one day they will see him again.
always liked Peter Duel. I remember the shock when he died. His brother was good too.
Seeing Geoff now, we're seeing what Pete would have looked like. They looked almost like twins.
Pete was so much better looking than his brother
Still remembered, still missed 💔😢
Pete will never be forgotten such a handsome always smiling beautiful Pete ❤
They were both very handsome.
Still very loved and missed...he has beautiful memories of his big brother. Till they meet again ❣️
After all these years still so sad.
I am, too.
I have an autographed photo of Pete Duel. I thought he was the most handsome man on the planet!
I was 10 years old when Alias Smith and Jones was on and I truly think I fell in love with Peter as much as a 10 year could. But as I grew older I found that men that had the “Peter Duel look” were and I guess still are very appealing to me. I always wonder if I love dimples because Peter Duel had dimples or he so appealed to me because of his dimples…. There was a superstition that if a picture falls out of nowhere someone dies, a picture fell from the wall in our living room and I remember either I or someone said playfully “someone died”, then I learned the next day that Peter Duel died. I was devastated. It’s so funny to look back to know that I was only 10 years old to have such a crush on someone as I did him. I love watching anything with him still today. And I feel the same way as I did when I wad 10. Can’t wait to meet him in heaven.
I still watch alias Smith and Jones,the best western series made.
Still LOVED DEARLY AND MISSED FOREVER
Always loved and missed. 😭😭😭💔💔💔
He was my hero when I was a kid... still are
Sad video to watch, especially right at this moment ( just finished watching an episode of Smith and Jones) Pete was a fine actor! Vaguely remember when he died, was only 5 yrs old at the time! I always thought they were TWINS! they looked so much alike,, now I know the truth! Sad to watch this with all the home videos and pictures!! God bless you Geoff!
So cute and what great memories of your big brother!!. He truly was a lovely man in every sense of the word. Thanks for sharing them. RIP🙏😪
Thank you, Geoff!
The agony and pain still so fresh after all these years, as if it just happened last year. 😔😔
Por Dios mi querido Geoffrey sé el dolor inmenso por el que has pasado, yo perdí a mi hermana mayor hace 3 años. Hay tantos recuerdos hermosos que nos hacen revivir ese gran amor que sentimos por nuestros hermanos mayores; nos damos cuenta que aunque el tiempo ha pasado nuestro amor por ellos no pasa, sigue ahí y cada vez con más fuerza. En la Biblia hay una parte que dice que nuestros muertos no mueren mientras sigamos manteniéndolos vivos en nuestros corazones y alma. Y es cierto siguen vivos y nos cuidan y velan por nosotros. Te amo Geoffrey, cuenta conmigo!
Thank you for the pictures of his
Young life I loved him so much
I recorded how to steal a plane(only one day left till tomorrow)in the UK over 40 years ago on VHS when it was broadcast on British television,and have transferred to dvd now,it is a perfect recording not blurred and dark like the one on RUclips.it was never released on dvd,I still watch the movie as it's very good movie Pete duel made.
Thank you. 👌🙏💗
Thank You Jacqueline Geoff and Laura For Sharing It's a Beautiful Video a Great Tribute to a Beautiful Man Pete
Omg he is the spitting image of Pete I loved him when I was young ❤
Pete 💖
Such an attractive family --- all of them.
Brad Pitt said in an interview (in Esquire magazine when Once Upon a Time...in Hollywood was about to be released) that he was at his grandmother's house when he learned of Pete's death -- he would have been eight -- and he went into a dark room and cried. I've read that Pete didn't think much of Alias Smith and Jones, and in my opinion he deserved better, but I also think he underestimated the admiration of countless strangers because of that series. It must have been abstract to him, something he rarely considered or anyway he discounted, but if it had been otherwise, I'd like to think he would still be among us.
that show was terrific because of Pete. Who wouldn't love his Heyes character? I loved that show and his death made it unwatchable for a long time.
Very nice.Thank you.
Wonderful.
Thank you.
❤🌹❤️🌹thank you
こんなに素敵な家族がいたのになぜ？ピーター。これだけ多くの人々が悲しむとあなたは分かっていなかったのでしょうね。愛しています。ピーター❤
Thanks!
Beautiful video, as are all the videos on this channel. Thank you.
Thank you for the great video. I'm glad the videos are still for sale
Gracias Geoff, de todo corazón por estos recuerdos tan entrañables siempre estaréis ambos hermanos en mis oraciones
50 years ago we lost Pete
Go easy Geoffrey you’ve carried the pain long enough
Rest In Peace "idiot".
Happy birthday in Heaven Pete Duel..oxo
I had a big poster on my wall of Pete in his hannibal hayes clothes
they look a lot alike...he would be 84 if he were alive today...Pete Duel was such a handsome man, It is such a sad tale he passed away so young... where are his siblings today?? His brother was an actor, but what about his younger sister?? Is she a doctor??
Wouldn't it be wonderful to make a biopic today? Timely, I think. (But hard to cast, for certain.) (Maybe Sally Field can help.)
very sad
Roger Moore is with the brothers in one of those photo.
I think it's the actor Robert Stack.
should have been replacement on alias smith and jones
I'm sure that would have been too hard for Geoff to try to replace his brother because of the circumstances.
Did not like his replacement, should have been cancelled when Pete died
Watching smith and jones now
The eve of the 50th anniversary was 12-30-21
Confused AF
Pete died in the very early morning hours of December 31, 1971. It was a Thursday night around 1:30 am (hence, the 'early morning hours' on that Friday morning, December 31).

You know, creepy. both brothers looked alot alike-
As ever did these two brothers look a like. Both so handsome. I knew that they were related somehow. When I saw his younger brother in Chisum. I googled it. I was only 9 when Peter died. I was so shocked l had the biggest crush on him. Even as a kid I knew that he was gorgeous. I still wish things had turned out differently for him. He had so much to offer 💔💔❤️🔥❤️🔥🙏🙏🪽🪽👼👼🕊️🕊️😭😭
