Not sure what to say?

Doug was an exceptional man and CAO. I worked for five of them during my career with the County and he was my favorite. He always had a welcoming smile and was such a kind, caring, compassionate man. I remember serving the homeless with him and Colleen years ago at the armory. May God grant his family comfort and peace. I will carry on his tradition.

Heartfelt sympathy to Colleen & family, was a pleasure to have gotten to meet him,
My husband remembers him as always trying to be fair and just in negotiations with employee financial matters, a man with true heart & compassion was evident in the way he treated others.

-Aaron & Debbie Sockwell

It has been many years since we have seen each other, but I always fondly remember his visits to see the Missouri relatives with his parents. My deepest sympathy and prayers are with the family.

Linda and Doug

So sorry to hear of the passing of cousin Doug. Sadly I had never met him. Maybe now he and his cousin Dave can spend some time together.

Doug will be missed by so many. His 'tradition' to help someone in need does not surprise us a bit! He was a wonderful Christian man. Our hearts and prayers go out to his family.

What a pleasure it was knowing Doug and working with him on construction projects. His passing will be a loss to all who knew him. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends.

Doug was a special man, very positive and giving. All who knew him will miss him--we certainly will. Our hearts go out to the family he loved. May his memory comfort you in this time of loss.

Mr. Latimer was an administrator when I started with Shasta Co. He was always kind and welcoming. I am so sorry for his family's loss. May he rest in peace.

We have lost a wonderful Christian man and brother. Doug cared about others and was a man of great compassion. He will leave an emptiness in so many hearts. He goes on to receive his heavenly reward. May God give comfort and peace to Doug's family and multitude of friends. Miss you Boss.
