It is with great sorrow, and solace that we celebrate Doug in his passing. He was a quiet, caring, and loyal man with a generous heart, and loving personality. He taught us how to be a fighter without ever being angry, or raising his voice. Doug accepted his struggle with Huntington’s Disease with tremendous dignity. His strength and courage was both inspiring and humbling. Doug leaves behind his dear and devoted wife of 44 years, Anna, whom was always at his side. Loving father of Mark (Shileen), who gave him continuous joy and shared many wonderful memories onboard the train. He is also survived by his loving, and nurturing mother, Marie Sampson; his wonderful siblings Dan (Jan), Scott (Joanne), Laura (Kent Ginther).

Upon retirement Doug was steadfast at completing the weekly NY Times crossword puzzle with his mother and Larry. He will be remembered most for his keen mind and continuous travel adventures. The family expresses the utmost gratitude to the staff at the Valley Trail unit at St. Joseph’s Villa, for their kindness, respect and support; especially Chaplin Beverly, Elaine, Devy, Marilou, Annette and Dr. Kronenwald.
