    There are no words to touch on this passing of my DJ!! When he was little we spent so much time together always playing with his cousin Brian when they were little and I babysat DJ. The last time I spoke with Doug was when his mom passed and I was so hoping to see him again as it had been a few years:-). Nike, remember when you first started dating when you were my babysitter LOL And you still to that day called me aunt Missy and showed me nothing but kindness respect and love! Nikki,you’re a strong girl! You were mature beyond your years when I first met you , and there’s no doubt in my mind that DJ will always be with his family! May he rest in peace

    I’ve known Doug since he was a small little guy throught the Duprey’s & Kinch’s. He grew into a wonderful husband and dad and I know he will surely be missed by all of you. So sorry Nikki for what you and the girls are going through, but my thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

    Doug you and Nikki have quickly became close friends and you leaving so soon is a big shock, I’m selfish and wish you were still here with us but I know you are with our Father in Heaven so for that I am happy for you! You will be missed until we can see you again!

    I first met Doug when we worked together at Hacketts. I could tell he was a special young Man with a loving heart for his Wife and Family. He talked about they all the time and how much they meant to him. He had a great sense of humor and worked hard to meet his growing family’s needs. I always looked forward to working with Doug. He was a great guy and will be missed but never forgotten.
