HEBRON – Wendall Wallace Douglas passed away Tuesday, Oct. 11, after a long battle with cancer. Our thanks and prayers go out to the wonderful people at Clover Health Care in Auburn, who took care of Wendall.

He was born to Villa and Wallace Douglas on Feb. 6, 1936. He spent most of his childhood growing up in the salty air of Harpswell.

He joined the Army in 1954 and became a paratrooper, but the Army could not take the salt air out of him and he returned to the Brunswick-Harpswell area, where he worked as a carpenter and in the construction field for many years. He also lobstered and dug clams. The autumn air always put a snap into him; he loved to take his wife and family leaf peeking through the White Mountains – it became a yearly tradition.

He leaves behind his wife of 44 years, Beverly Douglas, of Norway; two sons, Wallace Douglas and his wife, Cindy, and Timothy Douglas and his wife, Kathy, and daughter, Mary Lou Brown and her husband, Bill, all of Hebron; one stepson, William Stilphen and his wife, Starr, of Kennebunk; two stepdaughters, Debra Golden of Massachusetts and Becky Theabold of Arundel; siblings, Everett and his wife, Shelia, Charlie and his wife, Sugar, Geraldine and her husband, Dicky Owens, and Betty Dean and her husband, Brayton Toothaker, all of the Brunswick area; grandchildren, Tanya Tufts, Josh Brown, Mariah Brown, Shauna Baker, Ashlie Baker, Dallas Douglas, Barbara Bonang, Peter Whaley, Brandon Douglas, Jasmine Douglas, Jamie Golden, Alicia Ouellette, Shelly Collard, Ryan Stilphen and Meghan Stilphen; and 10 great-grandchildren, Hailey Brown, Mikey Bonang, Isaac Bonang, Makaila Brown, Dylan Rawlings, Dru Rawlings, Matthew Collard, Bret Collard, Tommy Stilphen and Symphony Stilphen.

He was predeceased by a brother, Johnny Douglas; and sister, Cora Wallace.

Wendall’s love and kind spirit will be sadly missed by all that love him.
