I'm so sorry to hear of Doug's passing. He was a special person band instructor and mentor. I have so many fond memories of those years. He was such a kind, gentle and talented man. He is praising our Lord and Savior with the angel chorus! May God comfort and bless you at this time.

Julie and family, I’m so sorry for your loss. Doug was a true inspiration. I was a majorette in the marching band, and also played oboe in the concert band at Pandora-Gilboa Schools. Many fond memories are coming to mind. May your own memories help to wrap you in comfort during this difficult time. Rhonda (George) Bellman

I'm sorry to hear of Doug's passing. I appreciated him as the band director in my high school years in the band at Pandora-Gilboa Schools. I have fond memories of him and my time in the band. I didn't realize he was a Youth for Christ director later, but that doesn't surprise me. May God comfort you in your loss. Jim Leightner, class of 1973.

Julie (and family),
Doug and Julie were two.of our first friends in ministry when I entered in 1993. As I serve in Doug's foosteps at Mount Victory and Ridgeway, I know his legacy continues in all the areas he served.
Julie, we know that your compassion continues, and for all of you, we pray for comfort.

I want to express my sympathy to Julie; Steve,Dave,Tammy and your families. Your husband and father left a lasting impression on the lives of his band students at Pandora Gilboa School. His passion for the music and kindness is still felt to the ones who knew him. There are several memories being shared of our experiences. You kids were little, but I remember how sweet your Mom was. I babysat for you kids several times.(I doubt you remember me) but I do remember you. I still play the records that were recorded while your Dad taught. He left a lasting impression; appreciated and not forgotten. Jan (Burkholder) Edman class of 1973

Sorry for your loss. I enjoyed my time in Contemporaries with Doug and the rest of the group from 1986-88. He will surely be missed.
