Douglas Lee Kerins, a cherished father, grandfather, and friend, passed away peacefully on April 21, 2025, in El Paso, TX, at the age of 69. Born in Baltimore, Maryland, on September 15, 1955, Douglas led a life marked by dedication, love, and selflessness.
Douglas served his country with honor in the army for over a decade, a testament to his unwavering commitment. His work took him across the globe, a journey he embraced wholeheartedly to provide for his beloved children, Lyndsey and Dustin. His grandchildren, Bianca Kerins and Piper DeMarrais, brought immense joy to his life.
An avid animal lover, Douglas found a loyal companion in his dog, Carraugh. His love for video games was well-known among his friends and family. Described as loving, wise, and selfless, Douglas's legacy is one of warmth and wisdom, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts of all who knew him. He will be profoundly missed.
