I am so sorry to hear about Doug. He was the on-site Supt. when BD-East was being built when I started with MMI. We always had a good time when we worked together. We worked on many projects throughout the years. The last project we worked together was at Syngenta in south Omaha, that was my most memorable one. He was always a no nonsense guy, just get to work and get the job done. That was one of the things I admired about him. I know it is an old cliche, but I do hope that time will heal your sorrows.
