  • Maureen, Glenna's and my thoughts and prayers are with you, Linda, Christine and Trevor. We always thought of Doug as one of the kindest persons to have ever been in our lives. I am sure he got that from you. Also he was very funny in his e-mails to us. We are sorry we didn't see you and him last month when we were in Winnipeg. Being away from family is hard but it does not stop you from remembering the good ole days. See you soon Maureen. Glenna & Bob - Posted by: Bob Faraci (Brother in Law) on: Aug 22, 2015
