| Obituary & Death Notice |
 | Douglas Price
WEST BALDWIN- Douglas Arthur Price, C.C.C., born in Massena, N.Y., September 7, 1943 to George and Mary Price who named him after Gen. Douglas MacArthur. Douglas passed away on January 15, 2021; he is predeceased by his parents as well as his only brother, Richard Price.
Mr. Price graduated from Massena Central High School in 1961. He began his cooking career for Valle's Steakhouses that were once located along the eastern coast. Later on, he worked as a Dunkin Donuts baker for ten years but baking could not keep him from returning to a full service kitchen.
For the next ten years, Doug worked for Marriott Food Services at Merrimac College in Andover, Mass. His professional development was strengthened by meeting Julia Child in her kitchen at the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, N.Y.
The American Culinary Federation recognized Mr. Price as a Certified Chef de Cuisine, and in 1998, Chef Price was named Chef of the Year by his New Hampshire chapter of ACF Professional Chefs.
In his early retirement, Chef Price worked for the school lunch program at Salem High School, Salem, N.H., did consulting for other school systems, and was a private caterer.
After living in N.H. for 44 years, Doug retired again in 2012 to live in W. Baldwin, Me.
He is survived by his wife of 53 years, Jackie(Parker)Price of W. Baldwin; son, Shawn Douglas and Christine(Taylor)Price of Salem, N. H.; two granddaughters, Allison Rene Price of Greenland, N.H. and Jillian Leigh Price of Nashua, N.H.; one great granddaughter, Aaliyah Alexandria Rondeau.
Cooking was his life, and for Doug to see hungry people standing in long lines to get food greatly disturbed him. A donation in his name to your favorite food bank would be an honorable tribute. His final rites of passage were private and burial will be in the spring. |
