I Love you Douggie so much my brother, my twin. You were always their to protect me and shield me from hurts and brought such joy in my life. Meeting people you would always tell them, this is my twin sister, and say i got the looks, making them smile and i would quickly add but i got the brains. Doug i couldn’t have a better Twin sharing incredible Birthdays together. Even as we grew older, you would call and say we should spend our birthdays together which was always a special bonding.
