On July 18, 2020 Doug went to heaven where there are no tears or pain.

Doug was born in 1945, grew up and lived on Twigg Road, Mitchell Island, BC in the 1950-60s with his brother Jim and sister Noreen. On a trip to Australia and the Middle East in the early 1970's Doug met his wife Diana. They married in England in 1971 and then moved to Vancouver, Canada.

After studying at SFU, Doug taught business education at Eric Hamber High school in Vancouver for over 30 years before his retirement.

Doug will be remembered for his kind and generous self, and love of adventure.
