    Doug~
    You may be gone but never forgotten. Each day as I look into the eyes of your son, I know your memory will live on. I pray you have finally found the peace you have so long been yearning for as I know the struggles you endured here on this earth. May you rest in peace and God bless your soul. ❤

    I’ve known Doug for several years although it’s been a few since the last time I saw him. I always had high hopes for him, he was a good kid that loved life. It is heartbreaking to hear this news.

    My PRAYERS are with the entire Oakes family, his son, Tristen and all that knew him. May Doug always Rest in Peace in the arms of Our LORD and SAVIOR…. GOD BLESS you all during this time and always.
