Douglas Hocker Obituary
Born June 15, 1956, Died April 17, 2023
I am heartbroken to announce the passing of Douglas Harold Hocker. He passed away peacefully at 66, surrounded by family.
Doug enjoyed all the wrestling shows and motorcycles and was always cracking a joke.
He leaves behind wife, Patty Hocker; mother, Marge Hocker; sister, Pamela Fenno; children, Danny Lee (Ronda), Doug Jensen (Allison) Frank Hocker (Rachael), Tina Todd (Donnie), Naomi Sansi (Jimmy); 12 grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren.
Doug was proceeded in death by his sister, Marlene Hocker; father, Harvey Hocker; grandson, Chance Lee.
If you asked a hundred people who Doug was, they'd all give you a different story. A motorcycle enthusiast, a secret agent, a superhero, the tallest man in the world, an elephant tamer, the world's oldest baby, a movie star. It's no surprise that Doug was featured as the hero/comedian of most of his tales. One thing that everyone agreed with is his smile always lit up the room.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
I met Doug in the 9th grade when my family moved to Fort Bragg. Enjoyed his sense of humor; had a smile on his face most of the time. He wore his leather jacket and I'll never forget the red ruffled shirt he wore for a school picture. So glad to call him "friend". I wish we had been in touch over the years. Truly sorry he passed away. Rest now Doug.

I knew Doug from when he moved to Fort Bragg. I believe it was in Junior High School. We rode the school bus together. He was a good guy and I wish that we would have kept in touch. Probably last saw him in 1977. We are sorry for your loss. My wife of 47 years knew him too.
