Malcolm Douglas Obituary

Malcolm Hazen Douglas, 76 passed away Saturday April 14, 2018. Malcolm was born on September 10,1941 in Maryland. He served in the Army during Vietnam. After the Army Malcolm spent the large majority of his career working for Baker Hughes. When he retried he enjoyed spending time with family & friends, fishing and playing solitaire. He especially enjoyed riding his Harley, any chance he could. He was a man of honor, integrity, compassion and generosity. He was simple, he had a love for life, he also had a great, sometimes quirky sense of humor. Malcolm enjoyed helping others; teaching them along the way so they could help themselves. Malcolm had great stories to tell and was full of knowledge beyond his years. Anyone who received the honor to meet Malcolm knew that he had a heart of gold and always thought of others before himself. It was impossible to know him and not love him. No services are scheduled.

Wow, you are missed! Thank you for taking me in as your own. Thank you for encouraging me, loving me, guiding me, and supporting me always. We planted a tree in remembrance of you, everyday as I go out to water; I think of you. The girls ask about Grandpa Doug... AND Frank raced in your honor this weekend, how cool is that.. I know you are watching us. I love you, and selfishly miss you.

My wish was that he lived closer so we could have spent time together, unfortunately he moved out to Texas. I would like him to know he recently became a great grandfather to a baby girl named Aspen Lily. She was born during a blizzard and I think he would have loved her name. I miss the long talks that we had, although we hadn't in some time. I remember going to visit him and how he brought me out onto the ranch the guys were working at.

One of THE BEST guys I have ever known!! Worked with him a few years ago and will always remember I would quite often ask him how it was going and he'd reply it'll get better, then I'd ask him when and he'd reply I don't think I wanna live that long!! :-) Sure will miss knowing he is in the world spreading his unique joy for life!
