I remember and reflect on the many blessings that were mine because of Doug's life — the 30-plus years the Lord allowed me to have known him, I think of his response to the paralyzing sickness of his late beloved wife, Sarah. In spite of the paralysis staring him in the face, and in spite of the naysayers, against all hope Doug prayed in faith trusting God for healing Sarah — and did God come through! I also saw evidence of his faith in action...To pull together others to see God heal the broken Body of Christ in different parts of the world. His faith saw fruit in God's Kingdom in many parts of the world including Suriname, Guyana, Venezuela, Jamaica, Ireland, and Alaska. What amazing faith!

God used this man to reconcile where Christian pastors were at loggerheads. He was a peacemaker. Pastors of the different denominations would come together to pray and have evangelistic campaigns. His vision was to empower and unite Christian denominations. The denominations in Nickerie, Suriname that he reconciled 26 years ago were: Salvation Army, Moravian, African Methodist Episcopal (AME), Seventh Day Adventist, Full Gospel, and Pentecostal. He was indeed someone you could count on, a friend who always listened, and a man who gave his life to be a servant.
