I am so sorry for your loss. Prayers for all
I have no idea where to start we had so many good memories! You taught me so much and showed me how to do so much. You loved me like a daughter and at the time that's all I needed in life. You took me in and gave me and my family unconditional love and respect. You were the kindest man on this earth who would give anyone the shirt off your back without even knowing them. You made the best out of life without any doubt and I'm so grateful that I was able to be apart of your life ! I hope and pray that you know how much I loved you. You were there for me at my worst moments and always listened. I know you had a good life but I still feel it's too soon for you to go. I will cherish all of our memories. I'll never forget our late night chit chats while walking around the island. I'll never forget your goofy smile and contagious laugh. You gave me and my sister so many good things to hold on to. I'll never be able to drive by the water without thinking about you. You enjoyed taking us out on the boat and throwing us off the tube and watching our bodies fly threw air every day was like a new adventure with you. I could write all day long about you 😞❤️ You were an amazing man who I'll never forget . No one can forget Doug Jones ❤️

I’m so saddened to hear of Doug’s passing. Please accept my prayers and condolences. Love and prayers. Frances Dixon-Clark
There are no words to describe such a positive soul! My first encounter with Doug was while I was attempting to put up a fence in Knott's Island. He offered his advice and help and from then on we became family . He knew no strangers . If he couldn't figure it out he knew someone who could... From digging wells to roof tops down to ants in the sand he'd "get er done." Doug loved people children and life. He gave from his heart even when he didn't feel well he kept giving. He loved my children unconditionally and offered his advise with a bit of humour thrown in..he allowed my father to sit on the dock and float while he was busy at "the lot" (Munden Point) steady doing something, he would run us to Carova beach..., to ole Capt. George's by Old Pungo Ferry Bridge , to the trading Post at Blackwater. He taught us how to "Dougie" at the Bonfires by the sunset at the water and shared a many a sunrise at Cason point and Brumley Rd. boat ramp....loved music, friends, dancing, good times, riding his scooter on the island and golf cart when he settled in Florida . Made several trips to visit his Florida life and family. He would give the kids- n - I the tour from the golf cart with his music playing just pointing out the sights, who lived here and job he did there, showed us each time the places he'd fish, where the alligators would like to sun, then lunch at Country club! When he was in the hospital, he still remained positive and would have his arms wide open . My children loved him as he loved us all. My heart is aching for his loss and may we all learn to live and love and leave others with the legacy he has imprinted on us. I love you Doug and am forever grateful for what you brought to our family!!! Love Elizabeth Rebekah Autumn and Caidance Rest easy until we see each other again 😇😭😘
Doug, you will be missed. I will miss your smile. My heart is heavy. My thoughts and prayers will be with his family and friends.
