I only knew Doug as a Mason and family acquaintance, however, without his guidance, wisdom, and grace I never would have sought out Masonry. I remember he had the most incredible handwriting and the gentlest disposition.
RIP, Doug.

I am sorry to hear about the passing of Doug. I worked with him teaching handwriting in the Plymouth/Lebanon area. He would drop me at the larger school and he would do the smaller schools in the district. He was quite the kidder and I never knew what trick he would play on me next. The teachers loved him but he always left the class in a turmoil. May be rest in peace.

If I am not mistaken he taught Rinehart Penmanship at Russell School. He was a truly nice gentleman.

We lived on E. High St. in the mid 1990's, next to Doug and Phyllis, and always enjoyed seeing them both. Doug was always cheerful and eager to share his wisdom or insight on any subject matter. Rest in peace dear friend.
