The times we had and the places we have seen. The one I remember the most is when we went to a bull riding in Decatur, Tx. After the bull riding we went to a bar that had a live band on stage. Long story short, a few of us kicked the band off stage and took the mic, drums, and guitar from them. We sang "Drift Away" and had a standing ovation. Time of our lives. RIP my friend you will be missed.

So very sorry for the tragic loss of Douglas. I wish to share some very comforting words from the Bible found at John 5:28,29 and Revelation 21:3-5.: " With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. 4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” 5 And the One seated on the throne said: “Look! I am making all things new.” Also he says: “Write, for these words are faithful and true.” These verses show that soon God is going to bring about a resurrection of our dear loved ones, and eliminate all causes of suffering, including sickness, pain & death. Knowing this can bring a measure of comfort. May these thoughts from the Bible comfort your family and ease some of your great pain during this most difficult time .

I knew Doug as Lane's Dad. We got to know each other when I was Lane's 3rd grade teacher. Doug was an awesome dad to Lane and always wanted the best for his son. I hope that Lane always remembers how much his dad loved him.

Doug is like a brother in law to me . He is the best and cool and anything you could wish for . He is really nice and when I heard that he died I started crying so hard that it gave me a migran , and I never cried that hard .. I miss him and love him so much . And at least I got to tell him that I love him .... he is in a good place right now with god . He will never get hurt again or cry again or get sick again .. and I will never forget him he is in my heart and he had been in my heart every since I met him . Love , Hope Risch

Lil' Doug was a constant in my life for the decade I was married to Big Doug. So many memories shared over the years... from cross country trips to rodeos, to sitting in the driveway watching a little green frog hop across the street only to have a snake come out of nowhere and eat it (we laughed about that for years), to being one big extended family and having get togethers with all the kids. My favorite memory of Lil Doug that probably demonstrates his heart the most is when we went to Jackson Mississippi. I wanted to stop on the way to see the Tiger at Tiger Truck Stop in Louisiana but we didn't have time and Big Doug refused to stop. On the way home I got sick and was passed out in the back seat sleeping off the Benedryl and Big Doug was hurt so Lil' Doug was driving. We were supposed to come home through northern Louisiana but he detoured about 100 miles out of the way to surprise me and let me see the Tigers even though he knew Big Doug would give him a hard time. I will never forget him trying to wake me up quietly so Big Doug didn't wake up and find out we were in Baton Rouge. He loved more than anything to put a smile on the faces of those he cared about, whether it was some goofy joke or a 100 mile detour. This hurts my heart so much.
