Auntie Heather, Scott and Adam, Your feeling of loss is shared. As you know, I lost my Mom (Doug's sister) only a few weeks before his passing. Before her dementia took over, my Mom shared lovely stories of them all growing up in a house filled with love, music and quiet times. The only comfort I can offer is what I tell my own self and that is that the Maher family is slowly reuniting in a place where none of them are experiencing any pain or torment. My heart goes out to you all - because I truly know your feeling of immense loss. - Posted by: Liane Karba (Niece) on: Aug 12, 2021

Heather and family, Very sorry to hear about Doug’s passing. He was always very kind to me when I would come for a cup of tea. He was a kind man and this is how I will remember him. Take care. Tammy - Posted by: Tammy Senkow (Friend) on: Jul 10, 2021

We are very sorry to learn of Doug's passing. He was a good and genuinely friendly person who might have been quiet but had a good sense of humour. For example I asked him to pick up a bike from Winnipeg and he said some people take their dogs for a walk, I take my truck for a drive. You could count on him. - Posted by: Carol and McLeod Fiddler (Friend) on: Jul 03, 2021
