It is with heavy hearts, that on Monday November 16th at Northumberland Hills Health, with his beloved wife by his side, A. Doug Ainsworth took his last breath peacefully in his sleep.
Beloved husband of J. Cathie Ainsworth (Nee. Jack), loving father of Gord (Seana) Ainsworth, Amanda (Bruce) Minnie, Buffy Ainsworth and Tayler Ainsworth. Adored Papa, Grandpa of Dylan Ainsworth, McKenna Ainsworth, Raine Minnie, Jessie Minnie and loved Great Grandpa of Bentley Ainsworth.
He leaves behind ten siblings; Dear brother of Sharon, Ivan, Rion, Rona, Mary, Chuck, Teresa, Jack, Mike and Eric.
He will be sadly missed by many nieces and nephews.
Silently without ever a complaint or comment, Doug fought cancer on and off for 17 years. His time was spent doing what he loved as an arborist for 30+ years, riding his Harley with his wife, friends and family, and spending time in his garage with the dogs.
A private family service was held. A commemorative bike ride and a celebration of life will be held at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, please send donations to your local humane society or SPCA.

Cathie and family - working for the Toronto Police (Parking Enforcement) I had many dealings with Dougie and his crew for the relocation of vehicles while he performed tree removal. It was a pleasure talking with him and his colourful view of life in general with his unique sense of humour. I am saddened to learn that he was called Home, but relieved his suffering has ended. My heartfelt condolences to you, the family and his many colleagues. He was quite the character.
so sorry, a great loss forever a memory that will bring a smile to a lot of hearts and faces when he is thought of. RIP
Rest Easy Big guy, your love, strength and humor live on. Sending lots of love ❤
