Doug was one of those neighbours that helped people like me get a career foot hold in agriculture. From providing a reference for my first summer job in University to acting as a farmer reference for my Certified Crop Advisor application, Doug was the quiet hand helping to guide in the background.

Reading Doug's obituary reminded me of some of his activities and accomplishments throughout his life. I remember seeing him often in town with his truck and after hours volunteering his services.
In addition to what was mentioned in his obit, he also salted/sanded the highways for several years. He worked with my father-in-law Doug Moore for the Department of Highways. He replaced the dump box from his truck with a salt/sand box for the winter months.
I saw him countless times travelling up and down Highway 4 making the roads safer for traffic.
If we needed sand, gravel or topsoil, he was the guy to call. He even moved firewood for us.
Sincere condolences to Frances and Family.

Condolences as well from my Mother Elma McDonald in Brucelea Haven who is 101.

The Button Family, Peter and I wish to send our condolences to you at this sad time. Doug was a wonderful person and you will all miss him very much. Personally, I have many happy memories of our involvement in the Teeswater United Church in our teenage years. It was wonderful to have had a visit at the closing of the church last June.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Uncle Doug, you were a wonderful person, caring and always had a genuine interest in life. Your warm soul, was felt by many as it shone through your smile. I always loved visiting your home, from learning about crops, the best time to plant and remove. The dedication a farmer had with getting up before dawn and coming home after dark. Showing me how to fly a plane, learning about, the steers in the barn, and the time one gave birth. A big lesson, not to touch the electric fence. Your respect for the land you loved so much put me at awe. I’m really going to miss you. Rest in peace Uncle Doug

We remember with fondness our many visits with Doug and Frances. As a former pilot, Greg was especially pleased to go flying with Doug while Frances and I waited at the air strip. Doug appreciated Greg's strong interest in engineering and arranged visits in the local area to see various engines. In recent years, we were delighted to be part of some of Frances and Doug's visits to see Darryl, Karla, Lukas, Brooklyn and Lily, first in the Netherlands and then in California. Family is important and we treasure these memories of our cousin Doug. We extend our deepest sympathy. Although we cannot be in Teeswater on Friday, we shall look to the heavens and remember Doug.

Andre and Shirley Aerts send our thoughts to the family of Doug at this difficult time. Frances and I visited often as we grew up. He will be greatly missed at our family get-togethers.
He was a true faithful farmer and family man. It was wonderful that he and Frances were able to celebrate their 60th anniversary. They were thankfully able to visit their distant family recently.
