Mickey, Pam, Eric, and Cindy, I am so saddened to hear of Doug's passing. Our families took different paths, but I think of you often and smile with the memories. Doug is one of a kind, a friend to all, and will be sorely missed.
God Bless you all.

We still needed you but God had other plans. Our worst day was your best because you got to meet Jesus. You were my "baby bread n bruder". Not such a smart big sister at 2 was I. I will miss you until we meet again in heaven. Hugs and love for Mickey.
