Douglas R. Osgood

Sorry to hear about your dad.

I have known Doug for many years as a fellow member of U Methodist Clergy. I had the honor of working with Doug at Fairfield Grace for three years as an associate pastor. I was just coming back into pastoral ministry having gone for a Master's Degree in Counseling and interning at Fairfield Hills Hospital in Newtown, a psychiatric hospital. Doug treated me as an equal in all ways. We were a team and I appreciated his skills for pastoral ministry. After working together we remained connected by re-establishing a group called T E A M which stood for either Tuesday of Thursday Evening Adult Ministry- an ongoing fellowship of individuals and couples. My prayers are with Carol his children and extended family.

I worked for Doug at Fairfield- Grace when my children were very small. I was his organist and choir director, and we performed many services and concerts together! He baptized my third child, Bryan, and Carol taught piano to my other two. He was a wonderful, warm, and caring man who is deeply missed.

Doug was a wonderful friend and encourager. I will always remember his great smile!
