Testimonial
"After over 40 years of committing himself to companies and his colleagues, Doug retired at the end of January 2015. But I have a feeling this isn’t the last we’ll see of him. Doug, you are an amazing leader, a wonderful colleague, a friend to many and a mentor to hundreds. We owe so much of our success and happiness to you. Thank you for what you have done for each one of us."
