Dear Joanna and Wendy and Karen,
It was with great shock and sadness that my sister, Irene Deck, CKCK colleague of Doug shared the news of his passing with me. I offer you my condolences in the loss of your remarkable husband and father. As a listener of radio, I remember Doug’s distinctive voice on the air whether broadcasting the weather, the funnies, football games, Remembrance Day, or good old rock and roll music. He was certainly a master at sharing events with his voice and sharp mind. I heard him most recently over the air when he and other colleagues gathered in April for a CKCK reunion of the oldie goldies. It was so great to hear him and his buddies recall the good old days of CKCK Radio. I know Doug will be greatly missed by you especially and of course, by all his fans. May you take comfort in your precious memories of him. His was a life fully lived by contributing extensively to his community and through the air waves reaching far and wide in the province of Saskatchewan. Thank you Doug, for sharing your life so expansively and with excellent expression. May you now Rest In Peace after many tasks well done.
With Sincere Sympathy,
Lynda Browning.
