DEAR TREMBLAY FAMILY, DOUG AND I FLEW A FEW TRIPS TOGETHER AND THEY WERE SOME OF THE MOST ENJOYABLE. HE MADE ALL THE FLIGHTS SHORTER THAN THEY WERE BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH HE WAS EASY GOING AND FUN HE STILL WAS A REAL PROFESSIONAL. HE DEFINITELY WAS ONE OF THE GOOD GUYS AND WE WILL ALL MISS HIM. SINCERELY, HARRY BEDROSSIAN

So sorry to hear about Doug. I knew he had been ill. I didn't know him well at NWA, but he seemed to be a gentleman. Not many of us retired NWA pilots living in LV. I met him again when I moved here in 2011. Got to play poker with him a few times at the Santa Fe. Missed him in the last few years.
