I will always treasure you singing "How Great Thou Art" when I needed it the most. Also, you knew how to make me laugh when I was sad. Your Sister-in-Christ, Evelyn

Edith, Vanessa and the other family. I am truly sorry to hear of Doug's passing. But to all of you, God makes no mistakes. Remember the laughter and joy that Doug always brought to the lives he touched. May God continue to richly Bless each of you. Doug was such a joy to know. I remember the fun that he, Ms. Avis, Ms. Betty and I all had at Ms. Avis' baby shower. A dear friend, Gloria Jones

Edith and Vanessa, I am crying as I type this. I know he is in a better place. I loved Doug. He was my best male friend that I have ever had. He also was the only person in this world could get away with calling me fat. I will never forget him. I love you guys
