Douglas Friend

You would have loved what is going on in tech right now and the companies involved. It truly is an Information Revolution. I miss talking shop with you!

When my family moved to Old Tappan when I was in 8th grade, Doug was one of the first people that made me feel welcomed. Even though we were just kids, he knew the meaning of friendship, respect and how to be a friend. Lucky for me, he was my first boyfriend, and the best first boyfriend a girl good have. Our friendship took many turns, typical as life progresses. He was the one person that I could count on in any situation. He was the one who was there for me during a very difficult time in...

R.I.P Doug Friend.

God Bless you Doug.

You will live forever in our hearts and memories.

Decades have passed since I have seen Doug, but I certainly remember his great sense of humor, good nature towards all and his contagious zest for life. Looking back to our teenage years, I would have to thank Doug for furthering my passion of all things cars and I will never forget when Doug allowed me to drive his Dad's new red Camaro Z28! Doug was a sweet guy and I am saddened by his untimely passing. I know he will be missed my many.

My heartfelt sympathy to his family.

Doug was a kind and giving person who touched the lives of so many people whom he crossed paths with. Throughout high school, I knew Doug through mutual friends. He had many friends and was popular among his buddies as well as many of the girls who thought he was very handsome. Once in college, I moved to Florida. In 1987, I went to school at Florida Atlantic University. Since Doug recently moved there, we shared a lot of great times together. Doug studied at school as well and later...

Doug was one of those "fun" friends that our dad had, so full of energy and good vibes. As the countless memories now flood our minds it is certain that Doug was a one of a kind, good hearted guy always smiling and filled with positivity. He helped me throw a surprise birthday party for my dad John Henry several years ago at his house. He took my brother Nick fishing and caught him his first and possibly largest tarpon. My brother, dad and I joined Doug in Treasure Cay and boy did Doug show...

Doug was an incredible person - there wasn’t a single time we got together when he didn’t light up the room - he made everyone feel as if they were his best friend and it was genuine - he cared and it showed - he was funny, he was fun, he was smart, he was a great dude which is the best compliment one guy can give another guy - he will be missed terribly!
RIP my friend! You left us too soon!
God Bless!

Although many years have past, since we last crossed paths, I will always remember your enigmatic smile and your zest for life. Through our time together as friends, I acquired a love of tech stocks and a passion for the underwater world, characteristics that I'm still passionate about until this day. Thank you for that and Rest in Peace Dougie Fresh...
