Doug will always hold a special place in our hearts. We have many special memories of Doug. Many memories that occurred during the times of youth wrestling. Doug was always such a positive influence on the young wrestlers. Every time our son, Chayce was up to wrestle, Doug was always there giving much encouragement and for that Chayce learned to never give up! Sending our Love & Prayers.
