Doug is very much a part of everyone he shared his life with and he will continue to live on in all our hearts and we will remember him and be thankful for the time that he shared a part of his life with us.
God bless you my friend and may God bless your family and friends and all those who love you and miss you and suffer this loss in their lives.
For certain, the days and weeks and months to come - the passing of the many “firsts” that will be had without Doug’s presence will be hard for us to bear.
Let our tears fall; let our hearts grieve; but let us do so knowing that it is for us that we grieve and not for Doug – for he is well and free from the pains of this life. The tears we shed and the hurt we feel is a testimony to the genuine goodness of our friend – a good man with a big heart and an even bigger personality – who will be deeply missed by all who knew him – and whose lives are forever blessed for having the honor of calling him friend.

Doug and I sat next to each other for 5 years at B-S Steel. It was never a dull moment around Doug. He told the best jokes and was always making us laugh. I remember the Friday BBQ's and Pomme de Terre stories. My thoughts and prayers go out to Betty and all Doug's family. We lost him way too early but he's up in heaven making them laugh now.

I worked with Doug for over 6 years at B-S Steel. I spent about 5 of them sitting in the desk next to him. As you can imagine, it was never a dull moment with Doug. I'll always remember Doug's funny jokes (many of which I can't repeat here) , the Friday afternoon BBQ's for the office and warehouse and his awesome sense of humor. He also had many funny stories about his trips to Pomme de Terre Lake. My heart and prayers go out to Betty and all of Doug's family. We lost Doug way too early.

All my thoughts and prayers are with Doug's fiancee, family, and friends. "That man is a success who has lived well, laughed often and loved much; who has gained the respect of intelligent men and the love of children; who has filled his niche and accomplished his task; who leaves the world better than he found it, ... who never lacked appreciation of earth's beauty or failed to express it; who looked for the best in others and gave the best he had." - B. Stanley. God bless you, Doug. You helped me become a better person and I'll never forget you.

Doug, you will be missed by all the old crew. I always thought that there would be time for many more days of fishing together. I remember the time we both took a vacation day in the middle of the week to go to Truman Lake. It was 95 degrees out that day, but we just had to go! My thoughts are with your family now.
