I always felt blessed to have known, Doug and the Sturch family, and remember so fondly the years, back in the day, that I got to “hang out” with all of you, but Doug was one of a kind!

    I just happened across this today and was so saddened to see about Doug’s passing and to see that I missed the services. I have such fond childhood memories of my time with the Sturch boys while staying with Grandma Donna next door, climbing the apple tree and just being kids. My sincerest sympathies to Aline, Dean and David and families. May he rest in peace.
