Mr. Douglas was a kind man.  Even in the past few years, when I would see him, he would tell me how much he thought of me.  He left messages on my voicemail (some he thought he was leaving for his granddaughter, Rebecca, others for me). I have saved them, as they are priceless reminders of how much he loved people, including “Rebecca.” I would love to forward the messages to her.  Blessings to all of Mr. Douglas’ family. May his memory always put a smile on your faces!


We’re not able to attend the service today, but please know we’re  holding you close in thought and prayer.  Doug was a wonderful Christian man and friend that will be sorely missed.  We know Doug and Virginia are rejoicing in heaven together.  We love you all!  Karen and Annie Ruth 

When the wife and I bought our first house at Emerald Village Location  in 1968 on Rock Quarry Road, I bought my first used car then from Douglas Atwood.   Very good times with him !!!   God for sure was with him and is with him right now at his new home upon Heaven !!!

Doug was my neighbor for the last 3 years, and I could not ask for a better neighbor!  He was always concerned for the well being of my family and seldom had a gripe of his own. My chances to visit with him became more infrequent because of my work, but whenever I had a chance to slow down for a minute I would walk over to his place and sit with him and listen to his stories.  We had a lovely opportunity to go to his church one time to worship, and it was evident that everyone there enjoyed him and his friendship. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends as we mourn the loss of a solid man.   Sincerely,   Steve and Stella Prescott


Doug was a bright light in a dark world. As a disciple of Christ and a devoted Gideon, he never hesitated to share God’s Word and lead others to a saving faith in Christ Jesus. I remember a time at a family reunion when Doug very passionately shared his love for Jesus and called on every man there to  spend more time with their family and to put Christ first and always! Doug is no longer here, he has risen indeed. Praise God for men like Doug . If you want to see him again, give your life to Christ and you will join him in heaven one day!

sorry to hear of your loss. may god bless you and judy and family. doug sold me cars as a teenager and let me pay him by the week.he will be greatly missed.

to the Atwood family, 

Please accept our deepest condolences on the passing of your Father, Grandfather & Uncle - Douglas Atwood.

I was very fortunate to spend some time with Uncle Douglas a couple of years back. He was so kind to drive me around all the places that my mother and father had resided in those early days of their marriage. He shared many kind thoughts and special memories from the past of my father which really meant a lot to me. I was very lucky that Douglas shared those special memories and times from the past.  I really got a chance to witness myself the kind of special kind of caring and loving person that Douglas was in his life.  I would like to imagine that Douglas and the rest of his family who've departed are watching over us and looking forward to the day we will all be together.  

Sincerely,
the Stafford family - Tim, Crystal, Alyssa, Rachel and Olivia


Douglas and Virginia Atwood were two precious people. I am so sorry to hear of  Mr. Atwood's passing. Mr. Atwood was a humble, kind, honest man. I remember him saying "be real for Jesus."   I believe Mr. Atwood  was a  man who loved Jesus, his wife Virginia, and his family. I know he will be missed by many.  My prayers and love are with you all. 

So sorry to hear of your Dads  passing. He was such a wonderful person and will be remembered for his kindness to everyone. 

Steve and Family... you all are in our prayers...God Bless You All...

Sending healing prayers and comforting hugs,  with much love

so sorry for your loss   Bought my first business property from Mr. Atwood... so helpful and easy to work with


I will never forget Mr. Doug coming to Mt. Pleasant Church at Christmas as Santa and kids (young and old) would sit on his lap, tell him what they wanted for Christmas and then he would tell them how much Jesus loved them, to always be true to the Lord and to the little ones to always listen to their parents...so they can one day have a home with Jesus...I know he is Praising the Lord with mama and Billy Graham!!! Love and prayers to you all!!!

Our family loved your parents! Your dad, especially made all of our children's Christmas's so special!
They will never forget their own "SPECIAL" Santa Claus. He took time out of his Christmas Eve's to bless our Christmases.
He blew up a photo of us kids with you kids & gave one to each of us. 
He was such a comfort to our mom in her final days, Mom & I met him for lunch at LoneStar one Sunday not long before it closed.
He has been a blessing to so many during his life. I know you will miss him, & you will all be in my thoughts & prayers for many days to come.


So sorry Toni, my thoughts and prayers are with ALL of the family at this difficult time.


I lost my daddy a year ago. 
I will try to come, we love McLaurin’s. 
That is where my sweet dad is, he’s in a   Mazza Liam .
As well as my grandma, granddaddy,  aunt and uncles.
