It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our brother, Douglas Ducklow, who left us peacefully on July 14th, 2025 after a long, courageous battle with numerous health challenges.
He was a true warrior in every sense of the word – facing each obstacle with strength and unwavering determination.
Born to Momma Dukes and John Ducklow who preceded him in death, Douglas leaves behind his brother and sister, along with countless friends whose lives were brightened by his presence.
Known for his sharp wit and infectious laughter, he had a way of making everyone feel at ease. Whether sharing a story, cracking a joke, or just showing up when it mattered most, he was kind and deeply loved. Doug was a man of simple joys. He had a particular fondness for butter tarts, driving, and his daily Tim Hortons coffee.
A celebration of life will be held later this fall. For more information, please contact John Felsman: [email protected]
If you are inclined, I know Doug would be honoured if you registered as an organ donor, and considered supporting either the Kidney Foundation or Men’s Health (Movember): two causes he was passionate about.
I miss you my friend. You will forever be our miracle man, our crazy Canadian. I’m devastated you won’t be flying in to visit this November- guess we will never know what mayhem or plague you could bring to Australia this time. Love you forever.

You we’re probably my biggest inspiration and highest supporter these last couple of years. You drove me to sweep up the crumbs and look at a bigger picture and i’ll always love you for that. You’re always gonna be my Uncle Duckie. Best Uncle in the world. I love you, Mister Ambassador.

Shocked and so sad to read this announcement. Doug was not only my student in Grade 3, but later a friend who brightened many years with his wit, and actions, and amazing my wife and kids and me with his incessant bravery and strength. Rest well , young hero.

I am sorry to hear this sad news about Doug. I always got a kick out running into Doug and catching up. He certainly was a sharp, free spirit. But he was also a very respectful good guy. My condolences to you Joe and your family for your loss. Rick McNabb
