I will always remember Doug's beautiful blue eyes and gentle smile and gentle way with people. Brian’s story about the hummingbird and relating it to his memory of Doug was truly touching. When next I see a hummingbird, I will think of this handsome trainer, who considered himself the daddy or big brother of the show. Here's a link to singer Jody Whatley's touching tribute to Doug. She worked out with him briefly. Click here and scroll down to the third post or so.Jesse summed Doug up best: "He lived his life with his heart. He was caring, and giving, and beautiful."
Do you have a favorite memory of Doug on the show you’d like to share with us? I can think of no better way to honor him.

such a sad thing. i haven't caught all of working out, but i was fond of doug and sensed he had a genuineness that some of the others lack.
My favorite thing about the episode was how they shared Doug's principles (which are based on the principles of Reiki):
Just for today, do not worry.
Just for today, do not anger.
Honor your parents, teachers, and elders.
Earn your living honesty.
Show gratitude to all living things.
I think we can all learn from that. It's very humbling.
