Doug was a great man, I enjoyed being around him. Doug would give my husband Rich a hard time everytime he she's him. Doug, you'll never be forgotten. It will be just different riding threw the trailer park and you not sitting around giving everyone grief. RIP Doug you did a great job here on earth, but God needs you more. Prayers to family, you should be proud of this man.
