I went to school with Doug and after many years had passed saw him again upon my returning to Talladega. Of course we both had aged and we laughed at how much we had aged!! There will always be a special place in my heart for Doug. I know we are all born to die, however it is hard to lose a friend such as Doug Chandler. His laughter will remain with all that knew him and to know him was to love him. May God bring comfort to all of us that are left behind. I really don't think he knew what an input he had on people while he was living. Now with him looking below I feel in my heart he knows now what he meant to everyone he knew. May you rest in peace my dear friend.

Uncle Doug brought so many smiles to everyone he knew and loved. He loved his family and let people know it too. You never knew what joke, or comment he would make. He loved his kids. He loved his great niece Kristin and let it be known. He took Cassie and Kristin to the beach when they were probably 15 and 13, during spring break I might add and those girls had the time of their lives. He loved hugs. Uncle Doug, sorry for all you endured. You will always have a special place in my heart. I love you.

Doug was one of the truest friends a person could ever have. He was a kind and gracious man that was always there to lend a helping hand and never asked for anything in return. He will be forever missed and never forgotten. We love you Doug. Rest in peace.
