Rest easy my friend, I will miss you...

Like the tides of the ocean, the earth's population ebbs and flows every day.  Births and deaths occur moment by moment bringing hopefully more joy than sorrow into our lives.
Yet, when deaths do occur, we hope that they are taking place after following a long and eventful life path.  Such is the case with my friend, Old Doug from BC.

Strawberry Ebelskivers

You may remember our Strawberry Ebelskiver post from just a few weeks ago where we dedicated some of Liv's favorite Danish style pancakes stuffed with sweetened strawberries to Doug.  Suffering from a lung disease, Doug's family had emailed to let me know that he was in the hospital, and would most likely be there for the rest of his days here on earth.

Just before we published our post I received an email from Doug himself.  He was checking in on me and letting me know that he wasn't doing well, but he wanted me to know that he was thinking of me.  As it turns out, that email was the last one he would ever send me.

Our Ebelskiver post dedicated to Doug explains our relationship and how our paths have crossed in this lifetime.  And while I never had the opportunity to meet Doug in real life, today I feel an incredible loss at his passing.
Father, grandfather, great grandfather, loving husband, wonderful cook and a good friend.  The angels in heaven received a special new member yesterday, and I'm fairly certain that they are in for a treat when he takes a turn in the kitchen.
Rest easy my friend...  I will miss you.
