With broken hearts, we are sad to announce the passing of an amazing man. After a brave and courageous battle with cancer, Doug passed away at home surrounded by love. He was predeceased by his parents, Thelma and Albert. Doug leaves behind his loving partner, Terry; his daughter, Brittany (TJ); brothers, Bob (Ginny), Don (Donna); his beloved sister, Shirley (Rus); stepmother, Bernice; stepsister, Kim (Phil); stepbrother, Ian (Jennifer); stepchildren, Matt (Jannine), Corrie (Dan).
Doug worked all of his life in various positions with B.C. Hydro. His passions in life were fast cars, his Cowichan Lake property and Mexico.
The family would like to thank the many professionals that cared for Doug, a special thank you to Dana.
In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to the Canadian Cancer Society.

Marian Klassen I wanted to pass on my condolences to Terry and Doug’s family as I just heard about his passing. Terry, I’m not sure if you remember me but my previous name was Marian Glancie. I loved working with Doug at BC Hydro in Victoria, he was always so helpful, kind and a real gentle soul. We had many talks at work and always spoke so fondly of you. I hadn’t heard about his illness and was very sad to hear that he has passed. I hope you are doing as well as you can at this difficult time but my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I’m sorry I missed his Celebration but I just heard about it today.
Take Care

Randolph Otter I met Doug a few times at Carl’s Friday T. He always sought me out and made me welcome, knowing that I was a part-time member of the group. I thank him for that. Condolences to Doug’s family and friends.

Cheryl Baumann While Brian and I did not know Doug, we felt the connection through Shirley. We understand the sorrow you are experiencing now but in a way also the relief that he is no longer suffering. Brian and I extend our condolences to Rus, Shirley and all of your extended family.
Love
Brian and Cheryl
