Great service to our Country
Doug was remembered in 2005 when I visited his sister in High Point, NC and I made a small contribution to the scholarship established in his name at Western Carolina U. His name is on a brick at an highway rest stop near High Point. Doug was my sidekick at Officers Training at Ft. Belvoir, VA before he left for Vietnam. I served in his burial detail at his hometown and Arlington Cemetery. He was great to serve with, and I often wonder what he would be doing today.

Fraternity Brother, Friend, Hero
Doug was with us at Western Carolina University in TKE fraternity. He was quite but formidable when he needed to be. Hunting and fishing at every opportunity. He left us too soon and holds a special place in our hearts. We have chosen to honor him with a scholarship in his name at WCU. Godspeed “Light Load”. We will love you forever.
