Doug was a very inquisitive boy growing up and was extremely multi-talented. He was very much into music, learning how to play the drums as a young child, maybe because most of our family was into music of some kind, but Doug wanted to do it all, and as he grew up, he did.....from learning the drums, playing the organ, learning guitar and then the synthesizer. We always had an organ in our home because our mother played as well as my sister and I.
During Doug's junior year, he played the synthesizers for the Dickinson High School band in "Star Wars". Doug was very much into art and drawing as well. Honestly, he was a genius because he seemed to know things that were beyond the normal things in life and I can also say that he was a perfectionist in what he did.
