Doug liked going for motorcycle rides, watch action movies, going out for pizza, and drawing. He was an animal lover, especially enjoying cats and dogs. He loved being with his family members and they brought him so much joy.
Doug is lovingly remembered by three brothers, David of Oakdale, Minnesota, Duane (Carla) of Kenneth, Minnesota, and Darwin of Kenneth. He was preceded in death by his parents; one sister, Diane; and one brother, Denis.
Blessed be his memory!
