Ms. Linda, Shaun, Michael and Jami,
I know it's been such a long time since we've seen or even heard from each other, but I have such fond memories of all of us together, whether bowling league at Rainbow, traveling to a tournament or just sharing time. Mr. Doug was such a nice man and it was always a pleasure to be with him. I am certainly not the only one to think such; my brother Marc and Melissa called me just as soon as they saw the notice in the paper. After all these years, that's how much you guys still matter to us. I just wanted to let you know. Thoughts and prayers to you and your families.

Dear Maureen and Mark and entire Alfred family. I am truly sorry for your loss. Although I hadn't seen Doug in probably 3 years, he was a great friend(as was Maureen and Mark) many, many years ago and I am deeply saddened to hear of his passing. God Bless.

I am so sorry to see that Dougie passed away. I certainly recall the great games we played together. What a wonderful ball player he was back in the day. I had no idea he was sick. My sympathy to my old friend, Maureen, his sister, and Doug's entire family. Page Dew Colorado Springs, Colorado [email protected]
