He was born on December 7, 1946, in Buffalo, NY the son of Charles and Elsie (Molnar) Kindron

He graduated high school from Kenmore West in 1964, and took history and  business courses in college which he used throughout his life. He retired as a successful and respected District Manager for Family Dollar. He loved traveling to all his stores within his region. Doug also served in the U.S. Air force from June of 1966 to July of 1973 including two tours in Vietnam.

Douglas moved with his family all over the country including Rome, Dansville, Buffalo NY, Charlotte ,North Carolina, Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Spring, Texas, and Hays, Kansas before settling in Glens Falls, NY because he fell in love with the natural beauty of this area.  Doug was a diehard Bills and Sabres fan and loved watching games with family and friends. He enjoyed reading, his Friday coffee dates with his dear friend, Gary, happy hour with a beautiful view on his balcony with his wife, Peggy, and sharing his love of history, travel, art, and especially music. He looked forward to his yearly trips to the ocean with his wife and always said his happy place was sitting on his sister Sue's front porch facing the Niagara River.

Doug was predeceased by his first wife, Glenda and their stillborn son; John, his parents, Charles and Elsie Kindron; in-laws, Glen and Midge  Chase; sister in laws, Linda Kindron, Sharon Kindron and Polly Chase; brothers in law, Glen Dick and Don; nephew, Donald and many other friends, loved ones and family members.

Special Thanks to  High Peaks Hospice especially his nurse, Tim and family friend, Jen Rumrill and all others involved in his end of life care.  It is difficult to sum up the life of such a kind and loving man in just a few paragraphs. I could write a book on his many adventures and roadtrips.
