Doug graduated from Will Rogers High School and attended Northeastern State University majoring in Secondary Education-History.

He enjoyed target shooting, playing the French horn and the piano. At one point while in college he was a rodeo clown for one summer.  He thoroughly enjoyed traveling, including Yellowstone, Yosemite, most of the states of the union and several countries overseas. His last trip was a cruise to Alaska in 2024 with his daughter and son-in-law.

Doug joined Shell Oil Company  in 1966 and had a long and varied career with them in Tulsa, Oklahoma and in Houston, Texas.  Shell Oil transferred Doug & the family from Tulsa, Oklahoma to Houston, Texas in 1981.  They lived in Kingwood, Texas from 1981 until 2017.  The last eight years of his life he lived with his daughter and son-in-law.

Doug and his daughter TJ were baptized as Jehovah's Witnesses together in Tulsa, Oklahoma in November 1978.   He enjoyed attending Christian meetings, conventions and assemblies of Jehovah's Witnesses. Doug enjoyed the house to house ministry and was able to pioneer for one year and qualified to attend Pioneer Service School in 2022 with his son-in-law, Jeff.  As a student of the Bible, his fondest wish was to enjoy the blessings of the promised Kingdom with his family (Matthew 6:33) and he enjoyed teaching others the benefits of the promised new earth.

Doug worked hard to become a spiritual man and was steadfast in his integrity through many health challenges.  He is missed already but his family takes comfort in the resurrection hope as promised in Acts 24:15.
