Join us as we come together to honor the life and legacy of our beloved friend, Doug.

Doug was a sweet man, a discreet guy, a great friend and colleague. He was passionate about the outdoors and more than anything passionate about his wife and his life with her and their 2 dogs Piper & Moose on Long Island.

His salesmanship was top notch, he was inclusive and loved by all those who worked with him or for him. We all miss him dearly.

Doug did his very best to win the battle against the anxiety of his life. A battle we all know too well in ourselves.

His spirit touched us all, and in his memory, we're raising funds to support his wife Darlene and his family through the emotional and financial hardship of his loss.

Here a message from Darlene for all his friends and colleagues:
"All I want is the love of my life back in my arms. I feel more than just grief, loss and pain….its indescribable! Seeing support from his colleagues, whom he respected and adored come together like this to show this kind of support feels like an honor and I am beyond grateful. I would rather have Doug here more than anything, instead I sit here now facing an empty future without him. I died with him that day and I will never heal from this. For those who also loved and respected Doug, could understand how this loss to the world is the hardest hit ever. I think of how gifted I was to meet him and find love in this life that I will never find again….but it was something I knew so long ago when I feel in love with him that I was meant to exist to love him.
Please keep him in your heart and hold your loved one every day like I did mine because we truly never know when we won’t get another chance.

“When to the heart of man
Was it ever less than a treason
To go with the drift of things,
To yield with a grace to reason,
And bow and accept the end
Of a love or a season.”
-Robert Frost

I love you Doug…I miss you….I need you and I will forever grieve for you my love!"
