Doug was a great friend and neighbor. His commitment and service to others illuminated his generosity to family, friends and the community. Doug loved Sue and his family with his whole heart. I witnessed that love reflected in his children and grandchildren. I am thankful to have shared a part of his life journey as his friend. This world needs more Doug Stevens. I miss you Doug. You will always be an important and cherished friend.
