Doug was an avid fisherman, he loved to bowl, but his true passion was farming. Even to the end he would always question the status of the farm if the "boys" were hard at planting or harvesting. Doug gave his life to the Lord and we are assured he is resting high on that mountain pain free.

Honored to serve as pallbearers are: Richard Hovis, Caleb Hovis, Brad Case, Arlen Hobbs, Jessie Beaver, Cody Beaver, and Chase Beaver.
