Left with the fondest of memories his wife of 57 years Inez Tulk (Pinksen), his children: Jo-Ann (Mick Pennell), Paula (Shawn Fudge), Lorna (Lee Handcock) and Shawn (Pamela Oesch).  His brother George (Rose), sister-in-law Amanda Tulk and brother-in-law Willis Reid. Doug was blessed with grandchildren: Ryan (Ashley), Brittany (Marshall), Staci (Jessica), Lexie, Victoria, Isaiah, and Brandon (and his mom Cathy); great-grandchild Sophie and Sawyer.

As per Doug’s wishes, cremation has taken place and due to the restrictions of Covid a service will take place at a later date when travel is permitted.
