Debra Gibson wrote a comment

“I will always treasure the many days I spent talking with Doug over the coffee he had hidden in the Home Depot shelves. He spoke passionately about his motorcycle, his love for fast cars, and most of all his beloved family trips. He was an incredible coworker and a true friend who will be deeply missed. Please know that my prayers are with you Barbara and your family. I pray God grants you comfort, peace, and the strength to move forward each day lifted by the wonderful memories you all share.”
