Douglas Edward Mohr (Feb. 10, 1930 – Dec. 10, 2020)

Doug Mohr passed away comfortably on December 10th in the care of hospice at La Posada La Via Assisted Living in Green Valley, AZ after suffering a stroke.  He was 90 years old.  Doug was born on Feb 10, 1930 in Des Moines, IA.   He served in the Air Force National Guard during the Korean War in Syracuse, NY and Portland, ME.  Doug earned a degree in Business Administration from Wayne State University in Detroit, MI. He had a long career in the telecom industry, including 9 years with Michigan Bell and 22-plus years with GTE.

He is survived by his wife, Julia Christine Rando (from Portland, ME), of 67 years and their three sons, Gary (Saugatuck/Douglas, MI), Dan (Green Valley, AZ) and Glenn (Atlanta, GA) (and their wives Kathy, Margie, and Lynne, respectively); three grandchildren (Marion D'Anna, Sydney Mohr, and Grace Mohr), one great grandchild (Roman D'Anna) and a second great grandchild on the way.

Doug and Julie were members of Our Lady of the Valley Catholic Church in Green Valley and St. Francis De Sales Catholic Church in Muskegon, MI (where they enjoyed being part of the Cursillo).  He was a past member of the Elks in Michigan and Arizona.  After Doug retired in 1992, he and Julie moved from Muskegon, MI to Green Valley to join their good friends, Gloria and Glenn Vanderwiele.  In 2012, they moved to Assisted Living and later to Memory Care at La Posada.  Doug and Julie enjoyed participating in the numerous Green Valley Recreation (GVR) activities, traveling, dancing, walking and enjoying a wide set of friends in Green Valley.  They were known for a very positive, loving marriage and enjoyed doing nearly everything together.

Doug will be cremated and placed in a mausoleum at Green Valley Mortuary.  A memorial will be planned for a future time – likely in the Spring.
