MIKADO, Douglas

Douglas Haruichi Mikado 1925 – 2024 Douglas Haruichi Mikado passed away at the Good Samaritan’s Lodge in Magrath, Alberta, on Sunday, February 4, 2024, at the age of 98 years.
He is survived by his loving wife Susie and countless nieces, nephews, relatives, and friends.
Doug was born in 1925 in Ganges, Salt Spring Island, B.C., to Masukichi and Tsutayo Mikado, and along with his seven siblings, was schooled and spent his formative years there. During the war, the family moved to Magrath in 1942 and had resided there ever since.
Doug was employed by Tanco Co. in Magrath for many years and retired in 1990. His retirement years were spent golfing, yard work, travelling, and spent many happy hours in his woodworking shop. He was proud of his huge garden and beautiful flowers that he and Susie produced. Visits often ended with “come out and look at the garden”.
The family would like to thank the staff at Garden Vista for their loving care. We also appreciate all the visits and kind offers of help and gifts from friends and neighbors.
At his request, there will be no public funeral. A private family graveside service will be held at a later date. Flowers and koden are gratefully declined.
