Douglas was born Feb. 27, 1954, to Reed and Cora’ Jean Squires and was the middle child out of his siblings.

He was a devoted father whose greatest joy and purpose in life was his three daughters, Ashley, Shellie, and Shanna. He dedicated his life to loving, supporting, and guiding his girls, always putting family first. To them, he was not just a father, but their protector, their strength, and their everything.

Doug cherished his grandchildren above all else and was overjoyed to recently welcome his first great-grandchild. He took pride in showing off all the sticky notes that the grandchildren stuck in all places of his home that contained notes of admiration.

He loved being out on his property by the river, hanging out in his shop, and getting out in nature for the occasional four-wheeler ride.

He is survived by his three children, Ashley (Wes) Moore, Shellie (Alan) Nickell and Shanna (Tony) Plank; 12 grandchildren and 1 great-grandchild. He is proceeded in death by his parents.
