He was preceded in death by his parents, Edna Maxine and Donald Douglas Walker; and special pet, Buster.

Douglas was a long-time resident of the area and worked in the coal mines for Dill Trucking for most of his career. He also worked as a surveyor. Douglas was a member of the Heart O' the Hills Baptist Church. His favorite job was being a Papa to all seven grandkids. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, playing golf with George and Teresa, sitting on the porch watching people drive by, and making sure his girls were on time for work. Douglas loved working in his garden and talking to his ole buddy, Flash on the phone. He was a loving husband, father, brother, Papa, and friend. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him. His favorite saying was "whatever you say babe".

Memorial service to honor Douglas' life will be 10:00 a.m., Thursday, January 22, 2026 at the Dowden-Roberts Funeral Home Chapel in Heavener, Oklahoma with Brother Hank Miller officiating. Cremation arrangements are under the care of Dowden-Roberts Funeral Home of Heavener, Oklahoma.
