Becky: So sorry to hear of your loss. He adored you!! One of his aspects I appreciated, he spoke so highly of you. He loved and treated everyone at Sandco with love and respect. He help me in many ways to become a better person, which is a true reflection of the kind person he was. He never asked for anything, but gave his “all” in everything he did. May God bless you and your family as you navigate through these difficult times and give you the strength to remember the most beautiful times you’ve had together. I’m so sorry I just learned of your loss. God got the best when he got Doug, all heart!
