Doug loyally worked at GRBS at Parchment high school and was loved by students and faculty alike. For many years prior to his employment with GRBS, Doug worked side by side with his father operating and maintaining heavy equipment. He had a passion for riding motorcycles and loved to spend his winters in Florida with family and friends. He brought joy to all who knew him. His jokes, quick wit and zest for life were infectious to all around him. Doug was preceded in death by his father, George and a brother in law, Jim Lawrence. He is survived by his four children: Stephanie (Aaron) Baldwin, Christine (Shane) Huempfner, Matthew Commissaris and Stacy Commissaris, one sister Karen Lawrence, one brother Dennis (Benna) Commissaris, twelve grandchildren, one great-grandchild and several nieces and nephews.
