This was sent to me by Carol... (this one appears to be confirmed 2006)
-----------------------------------
For over a decade my dad, Leo Douillard, has been adding to his display @ 793 Pinemont Ave, Port Coquitlam, BC to create the Magical Christmas Light Display that it is today for all to enjoy and experience.
When most people take their summer vacation time from work they use that time to go away but not dad, he spends that time checking light strings and working on new things for his Xmas display – this year the new addition is a helicopter that will raise 10 feet into the air.
This year he will be putting up aprox 45,000 lights (not to mention all of the things in the yard including lots of interactive things for children to do).
It will take him aprox 110 hours just to put everything up (this doesn’t include the many, many, many hours he puts in throughout the whole year on the preparation like checking all the strings, and coming up with and making new things).
My father is a selfless, caring man with a HUGE heart that looks forward to seeing the joy his display brings to other people.
All donations received go to the Children’s Hospital.
Everyone that knows him is proud, honored and privileged to call him our family, and our friend. We are thankful to have him in our lives. We love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Once again Santa is going to make an appearance at our Annual Hot Chocolate/Coffee Nite. Please come by and enjoy complimentary picture with Santa and free hot chocolate/coffee on Sat. December 16, 2006 from 7pm till 9:30pm.

I received this updated email and wanted to share with everyone...
Leo Douillard's house, located at 793 Pinemont Ave, Port Coquitlam, is in my opinion one, of the best Christmas Light Displays ever because it is done with so much love and puts smiles on the faces of everyone who has the opportunity to visit of course I could be a bit bias because of the fact he's my dad (& the best one at that!). This Display of aprox 50,000 lights along with the many inflatables, characters & interactive things for children to play with, is done by one man with one of the biggest hearts ever!!! We love him so much and are thankful that he takes the time (about 110 hours to set up the display, not to mention the hours & hours it takes to check each string before set up) to make this display each and every year a bit more spectacular than the one before. Our family has had so much fun over the past years being involved in, what is now known as, the Annual Santa Picture & Hot Chocolate Nite. This year Santa is coming on Saturday, December 15th from 7-10pm, please join us & get a free picture with Santa and enjoy a complimentary Hot Chocolate. Please visit his website at http://www.piczo.com/xmasguyshouse Lights on 5pm-10pm nightly. All donations to the Children's Hospital. Thank you. Sincerely Proud to be the XMas Guys Daughter, Carol.
