Doug Had Some Health Problems & Was Trying To Get Back In Shape. He Had To Walk With A Cane. I Told Him To Take It Slow. Walk Some. Then Walk A Little More The Next Day. I Had Played Football & Wrestled With Him In School. He Was Trying To Get Back In Top Physical Shape. He Just Over Excerted Himself. He Was Obsessed With Getting Back Into Top Physical Shape.

I Spoke To Doug The Day Before He Passed Away. I Warned Him What Was Going To Happen. It Happened The Next Day. I Consider Doug To Be One Of My Brothers. I Have Been Losing To Many Of My Brothers Lately. I Love & Miss You Brother Doug.

Fun memories every summer on the Fair Valley swim team. I remember him pushing me in the pool before practice one cold summer morning! Always fun cheering each other on, hanging out between events, over nights as a team at FV. He was a great friend to me!

The days of playing football in the side yard. Going to the garden with you, Angie and your dad. The hours spent at Fair Valley.
