I don't think I've fully accepted that you've gone, Dougie. We've been friends for more than half my life. My heart is heavy and so broken 💔

I'm sorry, Dougie. You know why. See you on the other side. Always ❤️❤️

To Kiki, Cole and Dougie's entire family. I'm so deeply and truly sorry for this immense loss. May you find comfort and peace during this difficult time. 🙏

Douglas and I have been friends for over 25 years. He worked for me as a piano technician and was at the top of his game in the music industry.  He always came with a great big smile.  The biggest artists in the world trusted him with their tunings.  Through Doug I met his father, the Major, and traveled to Kenya to help his fathers music school understand jazz theory so they could be a part of the Berklee school.  Doug leaned on me many times over the years and I would often refer to him as "my son Doug" .   I cared about him very deeply and he was always a pleasure to be with. 

 Dear Kiki, Cole, and Family,

I am deeply sorry for your loss. During this difficult time, I hope that your hearts can find comfort in the immense love he had for all of you and the peace he has now found. May his endless "I love you's" continue to bring solace to your hearts.

Sending you my heartfelt condolences and wishing you strength and support during this challenging period.

With sympathy,

Joyce (Joey)❤.....
