So sorry for the families loss
I will never forget him and always loved him.
I’ve always been so thankful for the childhood I had growing up, and Doug and his family were a HUGE part of that. I lived within walking distance of their house, and his daughter Sam is my best friend to this day. Doug was always working on a vehicle, and I’ll never forget the blue race car he had with taz on the side. When he wasn’t working on a vehicle, or getting into something reckless, lol, he was in his favorite spot on the couch, watching the race.
He was such a fun guy to be around, and his laugh is what I will always remember. You will missed Doug!
We are so sorry for your loss. Doug had a contagious laugh that will never be forgotten.
You will be very missed Doug. God Bless You.
I’m going to miss you buddy 😢
I never had the pleasure of meeting him in person. However the stories he and life he leaves behind will be in conversation for a very long time. What I have gathered from close friends to the family :
