Obituary of Doug Crozier
In his 61st year, it is with great sadness the family announces the peaceful passing of Cameron Douglas Crozier, on Wednesday, September 25, 2024 at St. Michael’s Palliative Care Unit in Toronto. Family and friends surrounded him with all the love we could give. Predeceased by his parents Lyle and Vivian Crozier (née Thomson) and brother-in-law Bill Martin. Leaving behind siblings, Bev Martin (Jim Lynch), Ken Crozier, Lil Shaver (Gerry), David Crozier, and Christine Crozier.
A unique and special part of his Napanee family, niece Lindsay (Loohoo), great niece Kallysta (Kally), nephew Justin (Shannon), and great-nephews Rhett and Kade. Remembered fondly by many other nieces, nephews, and cousins from far and wide, including great-nieces Isadora, Arabelle, and Violet, and great-nephew Eli whom Doug shared a special bond with. He was loved deeply and he deeply loved. Doug had a special bond with his long-time friends Craig & Felicity, Connor (Sarah), Caitlin, Siobhan and Oscar; Phil & Josephine, Stella & Jeff, Teddi, Bob & Cole, as well as the addiction community and his church families.
Doug loved sitting in his favourite chair with his coffee at the front or the back of his Toronto home, deeply cherishing all of God's creations, whether it be squirrels, birds, cats, dogs, nature, flowers, trees or the sky. Our dear friend and brother fought with strong courage and bravery to overcome the beast (cancer), until it reared its ugly head once again. Doug is truly missed, loved and cherished; he will always be with us in our hearts. Goodbye, our dearest Doug.
