ken anderson kennys8200@aol.com friend 8200 e. brookwood drive tucson, az 85750 usa A born leader Doug was our high school class validictorian for good reason. He was a friend to all and a teriffic leader. When word got back home that he was severely wounded, many were praying for Doug. His passing was difficult for all who knew him. As a fellow View Nam vet, and a friend, we lost a great one. Ken Anderson Wednesday, January 08, 2003
