To the entire Read Family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you during this most difficult time. I was a classmate and friend of Doug's from WPCS. We shared classes and homerooms for many years.

I have fond memories of Doug, especially as an infant bouncing him up and down in the ocean at Jones Beach. My Mom always looked forward to his visits when he came East on business trips. We will miss him.
