    so sorry for your loss….doug use to drive my ma to bingo and town in the taxi….she use to aggravate him so much…but all in fun.

  5. Ashley Whynot

    Such shocking news to hear. Living close by to him and Judy for 15 yrs, he would do anything for you.He would stop in all the time just to talk and sit in ol black and when you needed help with something he was there.
    When I got my beginners , he took me out driving. I remember when I took him out DJing once to Hibernia, that was a fun night.
    It was sure different seeing ol black driving by, without you driving it. 2 mile will never be the same, it will be too quiet . Rest easy our friend.
    To Judy and family, take care cherish the memories of dougie and keep them close to you heart. Ashley ,Pam and Dakota
