My fondest memory is when Doug and I helped delivery milk in Ludlow & Belchertown from his father’s dairy farm. We weren’t suppose to go in the big barn but it was too much of a temptation and we always got in trouble. Doug was a gentle soul and will be greatly missed.
Condolences to Maggie and all the families, Robert Karen.etc..Doug was like an adopted brother to my family. So many wonderful memories as we grew up together. Cherished memories I am thankful for.
Maggie and family, Jim and I are so sorry for your loss; you are all in our prayers. Doug was a great guy; I am happy that he gave you (Mags) that opportunity to love again. He will definitely be missed. I know he enjoyed volunteering at the spaghetti dinner at St. Elizabeth. I will miss seeing him with you there and in "your" pew at 4:00 P Mass. Hugs.
I am so sorry to the Fuller family. Mr. Fuller was such a nice man . My condolences to all of you ! May he RIP
