Anne, Barb, Rick and family. I am very sad to hear of Doug’s passing. Although a lot of time has passed I still fondly remember the times at the house when us lads would roll in and exclaim “today’s the day we drink you dry” and Doug would answer “belly up to the bar boys… belly up”. We never did find the bottom to his bottle but we tried dam hard many a time. The pepperonis were also very good. Lots of shenanigans went on accompanied with as many laughs.
Heart felt condolences to all,

Anne and family,
My condolences to you on the loss of a wonderful caring person. Doug always had time to chat and also to give you help when needed. He will be truly missed by his family, friends and the community.

For many years I came with Grandpa to get eggs. I loved visiting your place

My first days with Doug go back to the early 80’s when I worked at Hully Gully and Doug would truck our snowmobiles and bikes from Toronto. On each load he would have a story about the trip ( not that Doug would ” ever ” have a story ) and he would want to get unloaded quickly to get home for supper with Anne. We lost track of each other for a number of years, …then there was this snowplow operator doing the streets in Vanastra. He was doing such a great job that I bought him a nice pair of warm gloves as a gift. As I approached the truck early one morning , his window opened and yes there it was that grin and that chuckle that only Doug could give you. He climbed down an we talked ( he talked, I tried with no success to interupt) for so long the snow started to melt. I didn’t want him to be out of a job, so I told him I was now late for
supper !! He stopped many times after that and we would have a shorter chinwag and send him on his merry way. I say merry way, as that’s the way Doug was and how he would leave you feeling, a little lighter with laughter, a little warmer about your Family, and with some anticipation as to when you would meet up with him again. We ran into each other a few times after that when he’d be doing a backhoe job for someone we knew, or at Tim’s when he was taking a ( one minute ) break, as he wanted to get back to the job. I could go on longer, but if Doug’s reading this, he’d say that’s enough, I have to get home for supper with Anne. So on that note I’ll give him the last word. Doug, my Friend, shut the backhoe off, take a rest, you’ve done your job here on earth, and what a wonderful job you did for all of us.
If I see some heavy clouds being moved around, I’ll know it’s you with the bucket working for your ” new” Boss !! We are better people because we met such a wonderful guy.
Thanks Doug, from all of us who shared a laugh with you.
Our sincere condolences to Anne an Family.

Andy and Linda Smart ❤

Jim & Marg Van Bakel

Much sympathy to Anne, Barb and Rick, Dianne, and families.

I don’t think I ever remember Doug without a smile on his face.
Conversations with him were always positive.
Didn’t matter what the subject matter was, the weather, the crops, home town developments, or friends in common. He’d usually even find a silver lining in a sad topic.
He would always ask how my family was, and I his. We’d always make sure to catch up on our “shared” Uncle Tom.
You always felt better after talking with Doug.
Doug had a heart of gold, and that with a very diligent work ethic, made him one of the best, most dependable people around.
Rest easy Doug.
You’ve earned it.

Liz (Golding) Scott, and family.
