Doug was raised by wonderful parents, who all former Sampsonite missionaries loved and held in high regard. Doug was one of us and served faithfully in the Sampson tradition. We express our alofa and faaaloalo to the family. We were shocked to know of his passing but are assured that he left the Sampson imprint on those who are fortunate to carry the name forward.
