My sympathy to Doug’s friends and family. I was privileged to know Doug during his time at Queensway and I witnessed his determination & dignity as he coped with his health challenges. He will be missed by many.

Please accept my sincere condolences in the passing of Doug. I want you to know that my thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this sad time – Ruth, Reg & Marilyn, Margaret & Peter, Dave & Bev and all your families. It’s been a tough time for all of you, and especially for Doug during the time since his stroke. He was faithful to Old Windham church for his whole life, and I can still see him sitting in the back pew. I know he had some laughs with my Doug from time to tie. Now they are together once again! Please know I’m thinking of you. Love, Helen.
