Doug was a long time and loyal employee of Motor Coach Industries. He will be sadly missed by his co-workers and friends. Besides his passion for his family and children, Doug had a great love for the outdoors and wildlife. He spent many wonderful summers with his brother Dave on numerous fishing trips throughout Manitoba and Lake of the Woods. Another favorite pastime of Dougs was attending and coaching Christines baseball games. She will always cherish the memory of her and her friends piling into Dads "Green Machine" and heading off to a game. We will always remember Dads favorite saying "Make Sure".
