Lori and family, We are so saddened to hear of Doug's passing. Even though we only saw you once a year at the Beaudin picnic I always enjoyed our talks together and hearing about your time spent in Arizona. Keeping you in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. - Posted by: Lori Freeman (nee Beaudin) (Relative) on: Oct 09, 2019

I am so sorry Lori to learn of Doug’s passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I’ll always remember Doug as a “genuine “ & fun-loving guy with that infectious laugh. He was a terrific guy to be around and to work with. Always fun times working with him at the Wpg Tax Centre. May your wonderful memories and the love of God give you comfort and strength during this difficult time. Take care; sending hugs. - Posted by: Linda Skiba (Co-worker) on: Oct 09, 2019

Doug had a smile that lights up your day! A chuckle and laugh that you can hear far away, as it sure warms you up and brings you joy. Doug was a Big Bear with a soft and loving heart of which he shows each and every time you see him. This is my son Rylan's Uncle Doug, a Wonderful Man. He was great with everyone... the grandkids, nieces, nephews, grownups. Doug (& Lori) always made us feel at home and loved. For the joy you brought to our lives, WE WILL MISS YOU!! - Posted by: Rylan & Michelle (Rylan's Uncle Doug) on: Oct 05, 2019

So sorry for your loss, Lori and family. He was easy to talk with and he loved the Bombers (unless they lost) and golf (could he ever drive the ball!) and, in his younger days, slo-pitch. That's where we met you, both, on Sue's team, One Bad Inning. He will be greatly missed but will live on in our memories. Take care, our thoughts are with you during this time. - Posted by: Duncan and Jo-Anne McKay (Friends ) on: Oct 05, 2019
