Douglas Null Obituary
May 10, 1950 - Dec. 4, 2016
Doug Null, 66, passed away unexpectedly of natural causes at his home in Modesto on the 4th of December 2016. He is preceded in death by his parents Norman Null and Mary Houser. He is survived and remembered through his children Alexis Rodier and Tiffany Null; and his two grandchildren Madison and Emily.
Doug was a kind-hearted soul who left us far too soon. He had a thrill for life and loved being active, camping & gardening in the summer time and watching football on Sundays in the winter time. He loved cooking and was his happiest when he was with his children and grandchildren. Doug was a long-time friend to so many and was always available for a phone call. He is now peacefully in Heaven with his mother and father and will be sorely missed by all who knew him.
A funeral service will be held on December 16, 2016 at 10:00 am at the North Modesto Church of God located at 1918 Sherwood Ave., Modesto, CA. In Lieu of Flowers please send any contributions to the North Modesto Church of God in the name of Doug Null.

Cousin Doug, you were the cool one in the family. You had a standard poodle named "Pierre," and a fast little hound named "Lucky". You put decals on your bike, blew your trombone to make dogs howl, put cigarette loads in your dad's cigars, had way too many firecrackers, and had an affection for fire (tried to burn down Uncle Bob's barn). You had a midget racer in the '50's and a GTO in '67. Your girlfriends were good looking (the ones you let us see anyway), and you were good at sports. You were playfully antiauthoritarian, and naturally funny. I wasn't ready for you to go. I'll see you on the other side, and remember, fires are not popular in heaven.

My daughters and I send our condolences to Alexis and Tiffany, who I had the pleasure of caring for when you girls were young. Your Fathet was always a pleasant person to be around, and I know this will be a hard time for you. Please get in touch with me girls when you can. Same house in Stockton. 473-7133. I loved your family and I send my love to you.

We were sorrow filled to hear of Doug's passing. Our camping trips (Day Ohhh!!!), the rotating group dinners and watching Monday night Football games together were fond memories. The world could use a few more soft-hearted souls like him.
