Douglas LALONDE Obituary

Published by Vancouver Sun and/or The Province on Jan. 11, 2012.

LALONDE, Douglas RichardJanuary 23, 1958 - January 3, 2012 He started his journey to God's Garden on Tuesday evening after a tragic container fire in North Vancouver. ""Doug"" was a Master carpenter and highly skilled in all aspects of the building industry. He took great pride in the quality of his work and every endeavour that he was involved with. He had recently fallen upon some hard times, but was well on the road to recovery after his family had found him again just before Christmas. He was a kind, caring and gentle man to all that knew him. He had a zest for life which included motorcycle riding, fast cars and a passion for carpentry. ""Doug"" is predeceased by our mother Evelyn and father Joseph in 1991. He will be sadly missed by his brother David (Sharon), sister Barb, brothers Joe and Ken along with his nieces; Melinda, Sabrina, Amber and extended family including lifelong friends. The family would like to thank all those who assisted him through his troubled times and too soon demise. There will soon be a private celebration of his remarkable life by those who loved him so dearly. God-Speed to you Bro!

RIP my little wine maker.
I will always have a spot in heart
for you.
A smile will come to face when I remember
all the good times we had and the silly things we said and laughed at.
BYE for Now Doug

Although I can't be with you while you remember your loved one, you're in my thoughts from afar.

In the Sunset of our Lives...

For "DOUG"...missing you BRO!
I have so many 'cherished memories' growing up... I could talk my little Brother into anything - but if we got caught, I always took the heat for it. Nothing ever criminal, although always mischevious! We enjoyed each other's company our entire lives and had many adventures together. Car chases, motorcycle racing, catching the biggest fish, and the work stories were always embellished. Lovin' you and missin' you! ~ D&S

To Barb, Melinda and Family
I am so sorry to hear of your brothers unexpected (and far, far too early) death. I wish you strength during this difficult time. Embrace the love offered to you by family and friends.

Until we meet again...

Douglas was my brother, thank-you for coming home one last time. You left us far too soon and took a part of our hearts with you. I will miss you forever, but take solace in knowing that we will be together again one day. A heartfelt thank-you to my husband David, for loving me so and making my life very special. The Lalonde family has been 'my' family for the past 31 years and I Love you all, un-conditionally.
Now we can only have Hugs from Afar...

Doug was one of the most generous souls I have ever met - though he didn't have much when I knew him, he gave with an open heart and a twinkling smile. He was a friendly, caring person and I will always remember him with fondness. I wish his spirit peace as he moves on.

Dear Barb and Family,
Often we go thru life completely not expecting tragedy to hit us. When we hear that someone has endured the loss of a loved one at a young age we are stuck for words and only wish that our thoughts and feelings could be known without having to saying something. I wish there was someway I could take away some of your burden and pain.

"He ain't Heavy, He's our Brother."
With 'great sadness' we parted ways today... "DOUG" was the Best Brother anyone could ever ask for - if you needed help, he was the first one there. His generosity exceeded his monetary means, but his 'Soul' knew no such limits! He is the Captain of his own Starship now and discovering the Wonders of the Universe. Until we meet again... God-Speed Bro!
