Doug had a deep love for his hometown of nooksack, he was an accomplished high school athlete (number 20) graduating from Nooksack high school in 1976. He always loved good country music, Pendleton whiskey and the great outdoors. In his younger years he worked as a logger and then began building a career as a Tradesman, he was a diy kind of guy which highlighted his exceptional skill as a carpenter. His craftsmanship is present at the Valley Tap House. In his downtime Doug was an avid outdoorsman. Spending many seasons of his life Deer and Elk hunting, fishing and most of all trail riding with friends and family, on his leopard Appaloosa, Danny. Many of the trails to the old goldmine cabin on sumas mountain were made or maintained by Doug and his friends for years, whenever you find your way along those trails either on foot or hoof, you will see "Doug's place", "Sarah's Ridge" and "Sam's Trail". Doug's memory will always be carved into the mountains in which he loved so deeply. Go rest high on that mountain cowboy.
