Doug Britt passed away on Wednesday, December 14, 2016 at the Platte County Memorial Hospital in Wheatland, Wyoming, after a sudden illness.

He also owned Dirty South Detailing, which really began to thrive in Wheatland. He was very proud of this accomplishment. It was his dream.

He was preceded in death by his mother, Katherine E. Britt. Survivors include his father, Clarence A. Britt; sister, Amanda Cobb; and fiancé, Christy Hallman. Honorary pallbearers will be Frankie Barnes, Terry Hodges, Bryce Blair, Bruce Carmichael, Timothy Colson and Travis Hallman.
