Certainly, a cribbage game was important to both of us. One time Doug and I were partners playing against a couple nephews. After only a few of minutes Doug and I were staring at each other, wondering what was more important to the nephews. The crib game or constantly checking their phones! It was all good. Watching evolution evolve and we skunked ’em! Good memory.
Condolences to all the folks that have great memories of Doug. Think of those memories now and again,.

My condolences to my friend Barb. I didn’t know Doug well but I do know that each time we met he was sincere, kind and one of the friendliest people I know. He also made great margaritas! I wish I could be there to celebrate Doug’s life journey with you but know you and Doug are in my thoughts and prayers.
