Not sure what to say?

Fortunate to have you as a brother-in-law for so many years. Sending our prayers your way Doug.

Doug, I am so happy to have known you, and I am so sorry to hear of your passing. You were an amazing volunteer to the animals at FWACC, your friendship and fun times will be valued by me forever. I know you have the peace you deserve. See you on the other side.

I count myself so lucky to have had such a truly remarkable grandpa. You are never far from my thoughts and never will be.

I was just thinking of Mr Pinner this morning and was sad to see he had passed. I am blessed to have known him for a short period of time. His determination, courage, knowledge, and strength was evident and he educated me on various topics. He is unforgettable. My condolences to the family.

Remembering Doug's laughter, his insatiable curiosity and happy memories from many years ago---sleep with the angels, Doug...John Mantovani

Melissa and Tesia.. I'm so sorry for your loss. Always wondered what happened to you all after Fran passed. I've got many memories of you all from the years I worked at your house with Fran. Your mom and Dad are together again. Hugs to you both. Prayers for your family.

Doug was a loving husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather. He was married to my sister Francy for many years and always treated our parents with the greatest respect and kindness. We enjoyed many holidays together with family and I could never thank him enough for buying my MGTD kit car! We will miss you and pray that you will Rest In Peace.

White shores,
And beyond.
A far green country
Under a swift sunrise...
Godspeed, Dad

We shared laughter and tears for more than fifty years. Thankfully, more laughing. Hoffman in '63. Chicago in '68. The times we shared.
