Had he lived, he would have celebrated his 73rd birthday today, December 10th. But the comedy genius died tragically at the age of 33. He fell to his death at the bottom of a ravine in Hawaii. Doug was dear to some people who are very dear to me. I had Holy Mass offered for his soul, and have been lobbying his friends to do good works in his Doug's name as well as offering the prayer to the Sacred Heart. We believe that he has prayed for us from Purgatory. And I believe he went to Purgatory because in prayer I saw that he repented before crashing to the rock floor of the canyon.
In his National Lampoon days, Doug was the editor of a close friend of mine. My friend, Doug's old colleague, has written a television pilot about a young couple who through a series of unusual circumstance become advocates come to the aid of a priest who is stranded in Purgatory. The couple have a friend called Mary O'Regan who has a great love for the Holy Souls. Who could she be...the mind boggles. If you are feeling extra generous in your prayers, please pray that a TV Network pick up my friend's show, t'would be a marvelous boon to the Holy Souls for their cause to be wider known.
