To
Jazmine, Bryanna, Milana & Mya,
your dad and grandfather was so amazing but God saw him getting tired and knew it was time to call him home to heaven.
God called him home to heaven so he could be your eternal guardian angel, to always walk by your side, to watch and protect all of you thru-out your life and not be tired anymore.
You were all his very special angels and now he is yours.
Sending special prayers and love to all of you now and always-

Our sincere sympathy to you, Lisa, and your family. We thought so much of Doug and our friendship meant so much. He loved life and loved to go to beach every morning and take in the ocean. Enjoyed his visits and his meaningful friendship. Peace and love to your family.
