Mr Douthard was one of a kind. He is one of my favorite people: always kind, smiling, laughing, generous with humbleness, positive in spirit. Loved to see him come in my store. You will be missed, for sure. You may call him Dad, brother, uncle, etc. But I called him friend. Blessings and peace to family.

I will always remember Mr. Lex, he was such a sweet, honest, loving, hard-working, family man, and most of all a God-fearing man. God has truly gained an angel. I'll always remember his words, "hey baby", always with a smile. Take your rest, fly high with the angels. Home at last in that heavenly eternal home. Gone be you definitely will never be forgotten. Stay strong family.
