RIP Doug Dubrouillet (1941-2011)

Although Gordon and I are no longer card carrying members of the fulltime RVing community, we still keep in touch and read blogs of those who are.

Today we received sad news of the passing of Doug Dubrouillet. We met Doug and JoAnn at Usery Mountain in December 2008 and again at Doc Justin's RV Park in Tucson. Doug was a lovely man with a dry sense of humour, a love of food and sleep, especially sleeping in!

Over the past few months Doug had suffered a lot of pain and he and JoAnn had made the decision to come off the road and had settled in their park model in Panama City, FL. He will be greatly missed by his family, his faithful standard poodle, Fillmore, his friends, his Facebook friends, and all of the RVing community.

RIP Doug. We all mourn your passing. I know you'll be up in Heaven still creating Doug's Pro Fantasy Football team.
