in honor of William.

I am so sorry to see this. I have many memories of working with Doug and Jan at JCMC. Never a time he wasn't smiling or being mischievous. I will be keeping this family in prayer.

Doug was always positive when I was around him. He was always so kind to me and always laughing. I'm so very sorry for your loss. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers. Love you all.

Dear Jan, may God keep you and your family wrapped in the warmth of his arms during your time of sorrow. I know how close each of you are which is a blessing in itself. Doug was so passionate watching Will play ball. Will would always look up to see if his granddad saw the basket he just made or the block he just did in every basketball game he played. With love I will keep you all in my heart and prayers.

What a nice guy ! I went to high school with Doug. Though the family probably does not know me and has been a long time since I've seen Doug, just wanted to give the family and friends my sympathy. Sincerely, Mike Mathes
