Douglas Robert Mohr

Douglas “Doug” Robert Mohr, 70, of Quakertown, PA, died on February 6, 2026, at St. Luke’s Grandview Hospital. Born in Quakertown, Doug was the son of the late Robert S. Mohr and Jacqueline A. Mohr (Underkoffler).

Known and loved for his boisterous laugh and keen wit, Doug graduated from Quakertown High School in 1973. He enlisted in the United States Marine Corps later that year serving as an electronics specialist stationed primarily in Japan, and was honorably discharged as a Sergeant in May 1979. During his time as a Marine, he earned a National Defense Service Medal, Meritorious Mast, Good Conduct Medal, and Rifle Sharpshooter Designation.

He furthered his education by attending Bucks County Community College and Pennsylvania State University where he studied philosophy and history. But his greatest source of inspiration came from traveling extensively across the United States having visited all 50 states.

Doug also spent 17 years enjoying the Pacific Northwest. While there he was employed by ATL as an account representative, installing and servicing ultrasound equipment. During this time, he lived mostly in Salem, Oregon where he moonlighted in a bookstore and helped run a golden retriever rescue. In 2000, he returned to his hometown to realize his dream of opening and operating his own bookstore — Lion Around Books.

His passion for life extended well beyond his professional endeavors. In his free time, Doug served as one of the first presidents of Quakertown Alive!, a Main Street program for which he also chaired the economic development committee during its formative years.

Doug was happiest though with the simpler things in life: Playing with his grandchildren, reading a good book, watching a soccer match, listening to Bruce Springsteen, hanging with his cat Gulliver, eating sushi, sipping a fine tequila, planting wildflowers, and joyriding in his Mazda Miata.

In addition to his mother, he will be dearly missed by all who knew him especially his long-term life partner, Teri Ceraso; her children Kirsten Killion (Jesse), Carl Spindler (Meghan), four grandchildren, and her brother Frank Ceraso; his siblings, Diane Kooker, Dena Smith (Kenneth), and Donald Mohr (Karin); his nine nieces and nephews; eleven grandnieces and nephews, along with his extended family members and friends. In addition to his father, Doug is preceded in death by his brother David Mohr (Linda).

Burial will take place at Washington Crossing National Cemetery on March 20, at the family’s discretion. A celebration of life gathering is planned for later that day in Quakertown.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Doug’s name to the Bucks County Free Library via their secure online portal or mailed to: Bucks County Free Library, 150 South Pine Street, Doylestown, PA 18901.
