Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to Doug's family and loved ones during this difficult time. We were honored to know Doug through our many visits with him at our local post office here in Depoe Bay. He was always kind and helpful and will be missed by his many friends here.

Dick and Joanne,

My condolences to you both and to Doug's partner and to his brother and family. I have fond memories of holidays and birthdays with the Simpson family, where Doug always greeted me with a warm smile and a friendly hello. Heaven has welcomed an angel into the Kingdom.

With heartfelt sympthy,

Becky Miller, Max Miller and Christian Miller
