time with his family and friends, especially the Thursday Night Football Crew. Doug never
turned down a chance to watch the NY Yankees.

of 38 years; and beloved grandson, Matthew. He is survived by a son, Kenneth and his wife
Jennifer; a sister Jaqueline and her husband Hardy; and sister Paula. Douglas will be dearly
