Doug was a tremendously positive force and a constant source of warmth to me and everyone I've talked with that knew him. I will always be grateful to him for the many times he helped and supported me and I'd like to let Kathy no that my family will always be there for them. Our friend, Doug, will never be forgotten; his spirit burns within us all!

It is with great respect that we must cherish the life of Doug Conklin. He was a friend and more than a friend. He offered his insight into life and showed much wisdom. I expect that his gentle yet strong affect on many people will continue as his legacy. We will miss Doug and, while we continue the dance of life, know that we will rejoin him in the afterlife. Our best wishes to the family as they cope with the loss.
