Our condolences to you Leslie and to all of Doug's family members.
As a co-worker of Doug, I enjoyed his conversations during breaks
and wished he could have continued working. Our customers were
always inquiring about him and his health. He was liked by all
and we miss him. We are sorry he was taken away at such a young
age, but he is a better place now, with no discomforts or pain.
Our prayers are with you all.
I hope you will drop in the store sometime.
Take care--Marilyn and "West" Westre
