"Doug"

Age 67, late of Lockport passed away peacefully at home surrounded by his loving family on Tuesday, December 14, 2021, after a brief a courageous battle with liver cancer. Born in Saint – John, New Brunswick, Canada, lived in Chicago and a resident of Lockport for the past 30 years. Doug lived for his family and friends. His greatest achievement was being a father and loved being the best papa ever! He loved fancy cars, guitars, music, his green Harley Davidson, his beloved Chicago Sports team, swimming in his pool, hanging out with his family and friends and being the life of the party. He had such a quick wit and made a lot of people laugh. He had such a nurturing spirit and would help anyone if he could. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
