Not sure what to say?

Doug was a friend of mine through a mutual friend since I was about 18. We became good friends and my wife & I often looked him up when I came to Michigan to visit. He was quite the character, always telling interesting stories but not always finishing them ;) We loved to visit him at his mom's house, she was a sweet lady and I hear she didn't stick around long after Doug passed. They will both be missed and thought of often. Good memories.

Our thoughts & prayers go out to Lucille & the Duhon famiy.

Douglas Duhon we were class mates many years ago. You lived life as God intended you to. Now your a Saint in Heaven and you earned your Heavenly Mansion ,I'm sure God has said to you that you have earned your rightful mansion ih the House of God . I'll See you later Douglas Duhon.

My thoughts and prayers are with the Duhon family. "Uncle" Doug was a wonderful person. He was not my blood Uncle, but he might as well have been. He was my Dad, Greg Tester's, Best Friend for most of his life. Uncle Doug was great, usually a childs parents friends don't want to deal with them, but he always made time to play with me and hang out with me, and never treated me like I was a pain or in the way. As I got older he would call the house and we'd talk for a long time and he'd ask me...

Lucille and family...It is with sadness that we learned of Doug's passing. Please accept our condolences . May you be filled with memories of wonderful times together. God be with you

My sympathy to the Duhon family. There will be so many things I will miss with Doug's passing. He was a very special person and loved his family, dogs and friends very much!

Dear Lucille and Family, So terribly sorry for your loss. Doug, will always remain in my heart and in my 'fond' childhood memories of us being neighbors living in Flint. I can still remember the heavenly-scent of pies/cookies being baked in the family's oven, and each child having to drink a full glass of milk w/ their meal before they could go outdoors to play. and me teasing Doug over his 'love' for his stuffed monkey, Cocoa.
My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Darryl, So sorry for your loss, our prayers are with you and your family. God bless. Roxann(Rocki) Boisclair and Chick & Sadie Zapata
