My favorite moments of my very good friend Doug is having our lunch dates together and always laughing and scratching our scratch offs together. How he would always talk about his beautiful granddaughter and daughters and his favorite place to eat joes dinner. Doug will be incredibly missed but always always a part of our souls love you my friend always
