    Rest in Peace Doug. The old saying the good die young really applies in this situation. I would say Doug was one of the most respectful young men I knew that grew up in Park Place. He always looked out for Ma Jones like no other. May God continue to bless the family.

    RIP Doug, good friend of the White family. You know I was wondering where you were because the trash was full for about several weeks. Now I know, why. Jesus requested your present. Rest on Brother
