He was born in Austin, Texas, on February 19, 1943, Doug was the son of Cash and Jacqueline Eberhart. He was raised in Morgan Mill and Bluff Dale-two communities that would forever hold his heart-and where he would spend his life giving back.

A long-standing and faithful member of Bluff Dale Baptist Church, Doug's life was guided by his strong Christian faith and his belief in serving others.

Doug was a man of many talents and an unwavering work ethic. He was a devoted farmer, raising Brangus cattle, harvesting pecans, and running a successful tree farm. He also worked in real estate, always with a keen eye for opportunity and a handshake you could trust. Doug believed in hard work, community roots, and the importance of family above all else.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Cash and Jacqueline Eberhart, and his nephew, Todd Eberhart.

Doug is survived by his loving children: daughter Jennifer Roberts; daughter Kelli Ugarte and husband Frank; and son Jeff Eberhart and wife Crystal. He was a proud grandfather to Kainen Roberts, Abby Eberhart, Isabella Ugarte, Alexandra Ugarte, Gabriella Ugarte, Ruth Reeves, and Landon & Tori Reeves, and great-grandfather to Henslee and Beckham Reeves.
