I met Doug a few years back and became good friends,he was one of the most knowledgable people I've ever met,a walking encyclopedia so to speak.He was a true enthusiast,not just for supercars,but all areas of our hobby.I wish his family & friends the best. God Bless you Doug,We will all miss you!

My sympathy to Doug's friends and family.

I got to know Doug through Brian, and he was an all around super guy. Doug's knowledge on COPO cars was excellent, and he was always willing to share his experiences of local Cleveland supercars. It was nice seeing him at various shows like Vette-Fest, Pittsburgh Autorama, ect. He was a friend who will surely be missed.

Brian,

Sorry to hear of Doug's passing. While I did not have the pleasure of meeting him, I do remember seeing his COPO at your shop last year and you speaking highly of him. Sounds like a great loss for our hobby.

I want to thank Brian, Joe, Stan, Steve, Bob, Mike and all you guys for the prayers and support you have given me, Doug and the children both now and in the past. Doug lived his life to the fullest as best he could and I am thankful to all his "car buddies" who didn't let him down and helped him really enjoy his last few years. THANK YOU EVER SO MUCH!
Marge
