Chad Randy Doughty

Chad R. Doughty, 19, of Rhinelander, died January 4, 2012. He was born April 4, 1992 to Randy (Bud) and Sharon (Napralla) Doughty of Rhinelander. Chad was a special brother and brother-in-law to Kelly and Nathan Lemmens of Milwaukee and big brother to Karli, at home. Chad lived most of his life in Two Rivers, WI at the Sister’s Treatment Group Home where he was loved and comforted by his foster mothers. While living there, along with his family he was embraced by a staff and community that allowed him to live a beautiful life. The last 16 months were blessed when he moved back to Rhinelander to a group home. Here he won the hearts of many devoted and loving care givers and staff with his infectious smile and belly giggling laugh.

Chad leaves behind his family, grandparents, Clifford and Elizabeth Napralla, of Princeton, WI, Phillip and Beverly Doughty, of Ripon, WI, foster mothers, Sr. Edmund and Sr. Irminia, of Stevens Point, WI and many aunts, uncles and relatives that have been involved in his life journey.

His family requests your thoughts and prayers and for all who knew Chad to never forget his smile, they believe it was his way of saying “Thank you, I love you”.
