Our prayers and condolences to the families. We've known the families for ALL of our lives having gone to schools together and I remember him as the Juice too. I remember back in the days one night at the Famous Door Club he was there and he were looking for someone to model on the stage with him, Denise LaSalle were there and he couldn't find anybody and he asked me and I said NO,being caught off guard and NOT to mention nervous and shy, but he were persistent and wouldn't take no for an answer,he was pulling one way and I was pulling the other trying to get away, it was so funny,but in the end I gave in and modeled across the stage with him. Those were the good ole days in the eighties. He was a joy to be around he and Dewayne. Continue to rest "Juice The Deuce" and I'm going to miss you. Debra and The Tyner's Beauregard AL πŸ•ŠοΈπŸ•ŠοΈπŸ™πŸ™

Mary Scott and the entire Family, our sincere condolences and continued prayers are with you All! God Bless ZATH church under the leadership of Pastor TJ, Rev.Tina Betts and ZATH Church Family.

we are saddened with the family. death of a loved one brings sadness, however there is hope. the bible says there is going to be a resurrection ( John 5: 28-29) It is comforting to know that we can see our loved ones again. Macy & Linda Adkins

On behalf of Beauregard HIGH School class of 1977, we will truly miss Doug. "War Eagle" and farewell. Willie C.Torbert v/o BHS Class of '77.

This is so heart breaking we all know we have to travel this path one day we just don't know when only God can decide when to call us home Doug you was always a joy to be around even when you wasn't feeling your best you always kept a smile on your face especially when you was talking about Auburn you will forever be missed from your Fersenius Kidney Care Family

Rest in power, my childhood hero! He will always be #32, The Juice, to me! We were childhood friends, playing, listening to the Jackson 5 and more! Playing softball for Marvyn Tex. Ahh, the memories! We grew up right next to each other and mama looked out for them. Later, in the 90s when he lived next to mama, he and Dwayne would often come by and tell her how much they appreciated her! Love you always, big bro! Kelvin Sims

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
