He was the tenth of eleven children. Doug proudly served his country in the U.S. Air Force and is a veteran of the Vietnam War.

Doug is survived by his loving wife, Catherine Lee; daughters, Diane (Bill Detrick) Lee, Shannon (Bill) Rawlins; and the light of his life, his pride and joy, his four grandchildren, Nathalie, Grant, Grace, and Lila Rawlins.

Married to his beloved wife, Catherine, for over 53 years, Doug was a dedicated and loving husband, father, grandfather, and friend.
