I am so sorry to hear of the death of Brother Doug Hamilton. I remember meeting Doug and Marty at Fifth Ward, when we me and Sheryl were newly married youngsters. It was great to have another Doug around. But he was bigger, taller, and stronger than me. I was used to being one of the few heads and shoulders sticking out of the crowd. But now I had to look up, if I wanted to talk to Doug.
I enjoy his gentle wisdom and his calm demeanor. That's not to say that he couldn't be riled up. I experienced some of that too.
Fifth Ward was a great launching spot for our family. Brother Hamilton and Marty were great part of what made that possible for us.

My prayers are with the Hamilton Family..as a 19 year old interested in police work I ran across Doug as he was recruiting at gulf gate mall..I was so impressed bc I knew his as a member of the church ...Doug was very very instrumental in getting me hired as I went through the application process. After I retired after 30 years I'm forever grateful and thankful for all he did to help me. As a member of the Church of Christ and a Christian I know that God has a reward for him and that he is with the Lord.
God bless
