Not sure what to say?

I'm Doug's cousin, Bernie Herpin. I lost touch with him, Derek, and Diane several years ago. If anyone reads this and can pass my email to them, please do: [email protected].

Talking to Diane for the first time in a few years, I found out about Doug's passing. It was so sad to hear. The few times I met Doug, he was so calm and gentle.... even while playing golf! To my friend Diane, I'm sending you big hugs.... Mary

I am just learning about Doug's passing and am stunned and incredibly saddened. Doug was an amazing human being who brought fun and light to so many lives. My deepest sympathies go out to Diane, Shasta, and the rest of the family.

Very sad to hear of Doug's passing. I have known Doug for the past 10 years and he was a great guy and very helpful to our company.

May God bless you Doug.

Doug was a warm and welcoming friend to me. I was really sad to learn he passed. But he would want me to remember the good times at wooley creek and being roomates in sacramento and carmichael. Doug had a wonderful sense of adventure and i was lucky to have known him.

Diane,
Unfortunately I never had the pleasure of meeting your husband, but he sounded delightful. I'm thinking of you. Please let me know if you need anything.
Love,
Barley

Doug comes across immediately as a genuine, real and sincere man and it made doing business with him easy and fun. On my first business trip to Sacramento he took the trouble to drive all the way to Lake Tahoe and we had dinner with him and Diane at his home. I will never forget this warm hospitality which is pretty much second nature to Doug and Diane. He came to visit us in Malaysia with Diane not too many years ago and was relaxing under the big umbrella near the beach. We laugh...

One didn't need to spend a lot of time with Doug to see that he was an incredibly remarkable person. He could befriend everyone and anyone within a few moments of meeting and that he did. He will be missed but never forgotten. With sympathy to Diane and the family.

Doug was truly a one-of-a-kind, a trailblazer, a good man top to bottom...the ripples in life from his positive impact will go on and on. Doug will be missed by many. Our condolences to Diane and their family.
