DOUGLAS CHALKLEY Obituary
Douglas had many talents. He was a musician, played every instrument, and was a singer. He performed for and with some famous local and big bands. He also played on the Radio Morning for FM 99 years ago. Douglas had many other special talents including art, history, and was very knowledgeable in aviation. Doug was involved with many areas of the church. He enjoyed going to Warwick Assembly of God where he played in the church band (known as Drummer Doug). He never met a stranger.
A Private Graveside Service was held at Peninsula Memorial Park by Pastor Jim Rodriquez. The family would like to thank The Hospice of Virginia and Weymouth Funeral Home.

WOW! I am still in shock I knew Doug growing up very well. I am Tracy Jeff Steele's wife. Oh the adventures Doug, Jeff & myself would go on. He was always so talented and just a down to earth guy. He made me laugh so hard my stomach would hurt. Even though we lost touch we would run into each other from time to time and it was like we were teenagers again. I am so sorry for your loss. God bless you & yours

When I heard of the passing of Doug ,an amazingly talented and truly beautiful person, the first thing I thought of was his love of life and everyone in it
I was always happy to be in his presence because he was like the piped piper. You could not have a bad thought or moment when you were with Doug. He had a quality that most people do not possess . Doug appreciated and was entusiastic about the little experiences in life and he made you feel the same. Doug brought an incredible amount of joy to many people in his music ,his art, and his unique personally. My deepest condolences to Mae, Phyllis,Bucky,Shelby, Sabian and all of his many friends and family. Doug was something very special
A great loss to all who knew him
