RIP Doug. I was fortunate to get to know you and learned a lot from you during our occasional times together. You definitely made a significant contribution to the City of Lincoln with your friendship and building skills. You were a very detailed oriented and skilled home builder. Something that we could always use more of. I will miss your friendship.

As neighbors three doors down, we will always remember Doug walking his beloved dog in the neighborhood. We enjoyed some really good conversations with Doug the past few years and will miss him! We want to send our sympathy and prayers to the family.
