  With all the Huge Egos in our sport, Doug was one of the few "Good Guys" who checked his at the door, that is until you messed with him, after that you better watch out! I spent many times with Doug laughing at all of his story's and just enjoying life on & off the Track. He was one of those guys you respected, but could have a lot fun with too. He was unique in every sense of the word, and will be deeply missed. I'm proud to have been his friend.

  I will miss many things about our Doug...his smile, laughter and wit, doing the "Twist" while trying to clean the Victory Lane banner, and his dislike of "Chicken"! Doug would do anything for a person he liked and as they say would "give the shirt off his back" if you asked....but he did not like people telling him what to do! He was a man of principle and deep family values, one who loved his family with all his heart and soul. My love and prayers go out to Dougs beloved family! I will miss my #1 Banner Bitch!
