I worked with Doug at Dick’s Sporting Goods in the early 90’s. Doug was a co-worker, mentor and true friend.
I will never forget my first Christmas season working with Doug. I was his new department manager in the Hunting Lodge. A few days before Christmas, Doug gave me a wonderful flannel shirt. I was embarrassed because I wasn’t planning on giving my associates anything. I accepted his wonderful gift and apologized that I had nothing to give in return.
Thirty years later, I still have that shirt and think of him every time I put it on.
My sincerest condolences to all of Doug’s family.
