Douglas J. Horner

Doug was an across-the-(Oak)-street neighbor for a number of years. He was always a compassionate, empathetic, interested-in, & interesting friend. We have missed/shall miss Doug; I helped him pass his needed-music course! Bless his memory, bless his dear mother (who we also had met,) & thank you, Doug, for being a close & friendly neighbor-- to both of us & to our children! -Harry & Carol Cunningham (formerly of Oak St., Butler).

When he´d return to Butler, he´d talk about trips to Mexico and visiting England and Israel with his father. Doug lived nearly three quarters of a...
