He also spent a few years with FastTrax in Corpus Christi. Douglas especially enjoyed the farm and doing his part in the Boll Weevil Eradication Program.
Douglas will always be remembered for his love of family, his kind caring heart, his wit and his big laugh that warmed our hearts. Much like his father, he was always good at making us laugh and quick with a good joke. He also loved to cook and turned out delicious meals for family and friends. Many good memories that we will treasure.
