Doug had several jobs, including Sugarbush, Enough

Ministries, World Paper, and recycling K-cups.

Doug was cared for by his daycare provider, Lisa

Rowell of Calais, VT, and his cousin Andrew Martin.

It was said many times that Doug was the life of the

party- he truly was!

His hobbies included everything Elvis, visiting Graceland on his 30th birthday, fishing, camping, bonfires,

jeeping, his guitar, drawing, painting, and the occasional yard work. His favorite, though, was having a cold

beer with the boys!

Doug was known far and wide; he introduced himself

as "his Mom's son". He had a gift for making many

people his friends! He was loved by many.

Calling hours will be held on Thursday, August 21st,

from 7 to 9 that evening at Kingston Funeral Home, 35

Slate Avenue, Northfield, VT.

A graveside service will be held on Saturday, August

30th, at 11 am, at Northfield Falls Cemetery. A Celebration of Life will follow at the family's discretion.

A very special thank you to Upper Valley Services of

Moretown, VT, Deb Reed of Montpelier, VT, the hospice and visiting nurses of the Barre area, and to the

many day providers over the years.
