Will Never forget my brother Doug. Always a kind word and filled with love for all. And one of my all time favorite drummers who taught me everytime I saw him play. So velvety smooth and sang beautifully too. Man I will go to my own grave missing Doug!

Left the Twin Cities 15 years ago and lost touch with all. Reached out this morning to one of my favorite guitar player / singer friends asking him to give Doug. My phone number. When I heard of his passing a little bit ago a piece of me took a real hit. Doug always treated me like a brother and I loved him like a brother. So sorry for the family. RIP Doug James. Missed and loved from your drum brother in Ohio.

To the James family, you have my sincere condolences. When someone falls asleep in death (Ecclesiastes 9: 5,10) the memories we have of them become our most precious treasure. May those memories comfort you as well as Gods promise at John 6:40.

To Doug's family, I am very sorry to hear that he has passed. He was a great drummer and singer, we worked together in Panama City, Florida back in the 80's. Always a smile on his face. Rest In Peace, Doug.

Very sorry to hear about DJ's passing. we worked with him and the Hollywoods many times and DJ was always so positive. It was like an old friend you were glad to see. Always a pro. He clearly left a positive impression with many people. We will miss him this summer. Rest in Peace.

Very sad to hear about Doug, just spoke with him on his birthday, Laura and I were going to go to Mancini's to listen to him play.
Many memories with Doug on Selby and Mechanics Arts H.S. although we never stayed in school that long. We send him last at the Washington County Fair
I remember one time he came up to Selby and Western dressed like a priest carrying his drum sticks with him, think he was 14 or 15 at the time.
GREAT GUY AND FUN TO BE AROUND !!
Colleen are prays are with you and the kids & Lucy
Love Jack
