Wow....what can I say about a man EVERYONE loved so much including me.  He was not only my Brother in Law he was my best friend. He frequently gave his undying love and word of encouragement when I needed them most.  I have known this man since I was 6 years old.  Now at 6 he was not one of my favorite people (he knew this) LOL he locked my in my closet so he and Regina could make out.  True story.....but Doug always denied it.  Even beyond that..... words cannot describe what a wonderful christian he was.  He would have given you his last dollar if you needed it. He had the sweet calling that only came from God above and shared Jesus to anyone who would listen.  I will miss that. Doug taught me so much over the 49 years I have known him.  He taught me what true kindness was....he taught me how to walk with Jesus.....even when I didn't listen.  He would call me one of the 3 stubborn Miller girls.  That we were. Doug....I am so glad you are out of pain and with our Lord and savior.  I will love and miss you but I will I see you again in Heaven.  I am selfish and wish you were with us but obviously God needed you more. Regina, Matt and Brian...Judy and Bob and all his many friends......I am so sorry for your lose but you will see him again very soon.  I love you all!!!  Douglas Terry Purkey thank you for everything you did for me and my family.  I love you and Regina more than words can say.  I will see you soon my brother.  I love you......Subee
 

The greatest friend a man could have...

Doug Purkey will remain my friend for eternity. His kindness to me and my family has long surpassed any possible way of reciprocation. He taught me how to sell... He taught me how to give back to society... He taught me how to sow kindness into the lives of others. Doug has made it his mission in life to speak louder, try harder and reach farther for The Kingdom of God than most would ever understand. His commitment to Jesus Christ and the redemption of His lost sheep is only surpassed by the love he held for his family. Matt and Brian were his life! And his lovely Regina his closest friend... Beyond our loss.... Beyond our tears... Beyond the last memory... You will always be my friend... and I'll miss you more than words can tell... Jay Gillis
