Hello Linda,
I don't know you but I did go to Teachers College the same year as Doug and I took a few university courses with him. You both lived across the street from my parents on Norwood rd. I am saddened by his death.

Linda - Mike and I were so sorry to hear about Doug's sudden passing. We became acquainted with Doug through the great work he did for us in our kitchen a few years back. We enjoyed working with him and were very happy with the work he did. He certainly was a man of many talents. Please know that our thoughts are with you and your family.
