Cunnington in 1890. It seemed fitting to bring him home for his final goodbye.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He will be remembered by the descendants of those who came to the Lodge when his parents, Nellie and Charlie, ran it during the summer months of his youth, by former students, by scouting and teaching friends, by local cottagers, and by friends and extended family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In later years, Doug became an historian, preserving the history of the Lake of Bays. Many of you may have read his books. His last book, completed the year he died, was &#8216;From Birchbark to Mahogany&#8217;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We welcome you back to Port Cunnington Lodge on May 14.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Doug&#8217;s family.<\/p>\n\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sign up <a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/dont-miss-out-on-doppler\/\"><u>here<\/u><\/a> to receive our email digest with links to our most recent stories.<br \/>\nLocal news in your inbox so you don&#8217;t miss anything!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"background: #5cb85c url('https:\/\/d1iczxrky3cnb2.cloudfront.net\/red_logo.png') no-repeat 37px; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; padding: 15px 38px; padding-left: 75px; -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; border-radius: 2px; box-shadow: 0 1px 0 0 #1f5a89; text-shadow: 0 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);\" href=\"https:\/\/donorbox.org\/support-huntsville-doppler\">Click here to support local news<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45657\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1941 to 2025 On&nbsp;Thursday, May 14, 2026, between 3:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m., a reception to remember Doug will be held at &#8216;Charlie&#8217;s Barn&#8217; at Port Cunnington Lodge.
