Douglas Albert Tincher
July 3rd, 2023
It is with heavy hearts and great sadness that we announce the passing of Douglas Albert Tincher, loving husband, father, grandfather and loyal friend. He lived a full and active life farming, working as a commissionaire and as an antique dealer. Doug was very competitive and put his heart into participating in curling, golf, hockey, refereeing, playing and coaching baseball. The fond memories created, while coaching girls softball with Dick Gutfriend, will live on in the ball players and the many fans who attended the games. He was also an active member of AA for 32 years, being of service to keep the doors open for newcomers. He always took the time to shake everyone's hand to welcome them at meetings. The countless hours and generosity that he gave of himself will truly be remembered in hearts of the many lives he touched throughout his life.
Doug was predeceased by his parents, Roy and June, brother Dick, sisters Margot and Colleen and cousin Bill Smith. He is survived by his loving family, wife Darlene, daughters Tammy and Twyla (stepson Joshua), nephew Peter (Carolyn, children Lizzie, David and Abbie), nephew Jason Tividar (Jenn, children Olive, Norah and Willa), niece Tiffany Craig (Wayne, children Jayda and Emily), niece Lexi Tividar (daughter Tessa) and nephews Kyle, Trevor and niece Brittny and cousins Laurie Moore (Jo), Drew Moore (Wannapha, son Joey) and Heather Knox (Daryl, son Conor), cousin Derrick Tincher (Cheryl, sons Jeffrey, Brendan and Morgan).
Through his larger-than-life personality, sense of humor and involvement in the community, he will be fondly remembered by his family, friends and AA members.
A big thank you goes out to the compassionate Doctors and Nurses in the palliative care unit at the Pasqua Hospital.
In lieu of flowers, donations in Doug's memory can be made to the Humaine Society.

Dear ones Twyla, Tammy, and Darlene I am sorry that you lost your father husband I wanted to share a very special memory about your father I was in Regina for a hockey tournament with one of my boys and I got Pilo nephritis and was very sick. While I was waiting for my parents to come and drive me back to Calgary. I was that sick. I had to elementary age children with me and couldn’t even take care of them Your father/husband came to the hotel room and brought me things to drink . I must have in my delirium, contacted Twyla and she sent him. We really are remembered by our good works. Even though I did not spend a lot of time with the man, I will never forget him. The meek shall inherit the Earth. Bless you all much love and light as you move through your grief Linda Oughton

I worked with Doug as a commissionaire. He was very dedicated to the various tasks required as a commissionaire. Doug was always ready to do an extra shift or help a friend in need. I appreciated his practical approach to situations,his great sense of humour,and genuine concern for others. Sincere condolences to Darlene and family. Ernie Boehnert
I am sorry to hear of your loss, Darlene. My condolences to you and your family.
Darlene, Tammy and Twyla - I am very grateful to have known Doug through AA. He truly was an outstanding member. He gave a lot of himself, but it was returned back to him in spades. Doug conveyed to others a very real sense of humility and joy that attracted both newcomers and old timers to him. It is with an enormous amount of gratitude that I have to have known him. We shall all meet again down the road. Take care of yourselves Ladies!
My deepest condolences to Darlene and family. Doug will be missed by all who had the please of knowing him. Doug was a dedicated and loyal commissionaire. On behalf of all commissionaires we send our thoughts and prayers. Rest in peace our old friend.
Darlene & family In reading Doug's obituary he was a real standup man of wonderful character and leaves behind many family members & friends with heavy hearts. Thoughts and prayers of comfort out to all of you. 2 Corinthians 5:8 ... "Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord." Take care Cindy
I’m so sorry to read of Doug’s passing Darlene. I have many memories of times together and Doug supplying me with antiques. I remember Tammy jumping for hours in her jolly jumper. The Waverly bunch are mostly together again and im sure they’re having some great hockey and baseball games and maybe a little curling too up in heaven. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. txx
My condolences to Darlene and family, he will be missed by many people.
Hello Darlene, Twyla and Tammy. I just found out after not being able to get ahold of my brother from another mother about our loss. I'm very saddened by this, I want you all to know what he meant to me as a friend, sponsor and the only confidant I had when I was still in Regina before I went back to Alberta. We'd always keep in touch. I'm so sorry for you all for your loss. I loved him very much! I hope and pray that you guys will eventually heal through all of this. Take care and God bless. Rob Nordal.
