My sincere condolences to the family of Rev Lane Douglas. I remember him as a truly gentle soul who delivered many an enlightening fire and brimstone sermon. He performed our wedding ceremony over 43 years ago. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this most difficult time. Pat (Sturgis) Van den Broek (late Douglas )

Lane Douglas was one of those unique highly gifted Christians that only comes into your life once in your lifetime, and have such an impact on your life that you are never the same again. When Lane was our pastor at the Dresden United Church we both came to accept the Lord as our Saviour and have never looked back. Lane challenged us and stretched us in our faith to step out of our comfort zones, encouraging us in every way to become the Kingdom person God has called us to be. As a result, it's because of Lane's example and influence in my life that I had the courage to enroll in Tyndale Seminary and obtain a Master in Theological studies and be ordained as a pastor with the Free Methodist Church. Since my ordination I have always considered Lane as my mentor and have cherished the many hours we had spent together at Fairfield Park. I am especially appreciative of having the privilege of spending his last few hours by his bedside, and looking forward to being united with Lane in heaven one day. To God be all the glory honour and praise for a life well lived!

Lane was a minister whom you knew Beas speaking from his heart He spent an hour or two working on our tomato harvester just to find out what it was like so he could identify with people doing similar jobs Phil Richards

I had the privilege of sharing ministry opportunities with Lane over the years and counted him as a mentor who taught me grace and compassion and the power of prayer. When I woke this morning, the words from a hymn came to mind, "When Christ shall come with shout of acclamation and take me home, what joy shall fill my heart". That was Lane. Then Judy Paling sang, "Well done, my child. . ." We truly do celebrate his life well-lived. Marg Moriyama

Rev Lane was an evangelical United Church Minister, a rarity. When he came to Dresden our church exploded to 3 services on Sunday. He brought many people to know Jesus, including my husband and I. He was a pastor in the true sense of the word. Lane was a friend, prayer warrior, and mentor. Edith was a wonderful woman. She took all of us young women under her wing and we learned so much from her. It truly was a blessed time in Dresden. Praise God. Love and prayers Connie LIbby (& late David)
