I'm sorry to hear that.  I remember Doug well.  I worked with him on
registration at the state conventions for several years.

The Kitsap Sun Newspaper made it official today, that our long time friend
and member of the NFB of Washington, doug Johnson has passed away. The paper
said he died on March 18. Doug became a member of the NFB when he went to
Spokane alone to see what we are  all about, as he was becoming blind. 

He was a great roommate and all around friend of mine at NFB conventions and
other NFB functions. He became an integral part of the affiliate, and took
great interest in most of the various activities. He worked on registration
for state conventions for many years, and loved to talk with everyone he
met. He very much enjoyed traveling, and he and his now late  wife Nancy
were at most NFB events. He loved fund raising, participating in our
auctions, and then took over as treasurer for a few years. I will certainly
miss talking football, baseball and other things with my good friend Doug.
May he rest in peace.
