Uncle Doug


Today we received some very sad news about the passing of my Uncle Doug. He is my mom's oldest brother and lived in Quebec. He is very close to our family and he will be greatly missed


We've never owned a cottage but growing up as kids, i fondly remembered our summer trips to Uncle Dougs Cottage outside Valleyfield PQ on the St. Lawrence river. Many of my trips to opening day in montreal for the expos constituted us stopping in Valleyfield to pick up Uncle Doug and heading into the city. His dry sense of humor and his ribbing of me will always be remembered.


2 years ago the Burns Clan got together to celebrate Uncle Dougs 80th Birthday. Here is a picture from that day.
Very hard to say goodbye... you will be missed Uncle Doug.
