He also turned his life over to Jesus Christ and I couldn't have been more proud of him when he did so. His last few weeks were a little rough and he was pretty much confined to his bed for his last week or two but outside of that he didn't suffer as much as many other people do in his situation. So as strange as it might sound, I hope you understand what I mean when I say that I'm happy for him. He will be very much missed by all of us who loved him but that is just our selfishness, we all know that where he is at the weather is awesome and his livewell is full of crappie (Doug was a huge crappie fisherman). Doug had several catch phrases but his best known was "just one more" which usually was referring to sticking around to have one more beer with his buddies when the party was winding down. But I bet right now Doug is on some of the best crappie holes that Heaven has to offer and with every fish he catches he probably keeps saying "just one more".
