Mu Uncle Doug, You are up there with all Your Best Friends having Breakfast…❤
To the family of Doug, we were so sorry to hear of your loss.
I am writing this on behalf of Jim Pigeon; Doug was a very good friend and business associate of Jim’s for many years. Doug remained Jim’s friend through some dark times and our family will always be grateful. I am Jim’s youngest sister, Jackie and I had the pleasure of meeting Doug and sharing coffee and breakfast with him and Jim. Since returning home to Canada, Jim often spoke of Doug, always with good thoughts.
