Doug was born June 25th, 1948 in Kansas City, Missouri. He was quite the jokester! He loved to laugh and pull pranks. Doug was also quite the musician. He played the guitar, keyboards and harmonica. Doug was also an avid outdoorsman, you could always find him outside up to something. He was sometimes called “Doc Holliday” because he was fast on the draw (a real gunslinger). A true family man, who always put God first. He is truly loved and will be greatly missed. We shall see him again.

He was preceded in death by his parents and grandson Doug, Jr.

Doug is survived by his wife of 27 years, Karen S. Richardson; daughters Tina Greene, Tammy Richardson and Tracy Chestnut; and stepchildren Paul Lillard, Lisa Lillard and Amanda Carlson. He is also survived by several grandchildren Katrina, Bridget, Matthew, Victoria, Christopher, Trysta, James and Kayla, one great-granddaughter MeKina; sons-in-law James Chestnut, John Green and Hollywood Austin; one daughter-in-law Melinda Magdaleno; extended family and friends.
