I haven’t seen Doug in a long time but I never will forget his smile. I had a lot of good times growing up with John & Doug going to St Petes and finding trouble in the neighborhood. Doug was a good kid. To all of you sorry for your loss. God bless.

My heart and prayers are with you all at this very sad time. One of the hardest times in our life is when you lose a child. I pray that you will find comfort in knowing he is looking down from heaven, and telling the family he loves you all very much and he knows that you all will hold him close in your hearts forever. Remember to be absent from the body is to be present with the LORD.
