Douglas had a huge heart, he loved and cared about everyone. No matter the cost he always made sure no one went without. He had so much love for his family, was always there to love, support, and help them.
He enjoyed going hunting and fishing. But, his true love and passion was junking, he would never miss a day in his little blue truck.
