Doug was born on February 19, 1959 to the late Al Junior Paige and Jane Ellen O’Conner Paige in Marks, MS. He lived a fulfilling life filled with love for his work and his family.

Along with his parents, he is preceded in death by his siblings, Patricia Wood, Laverne Red, Bill Red, Jimmy, and his twin sisters, Baby Girl Jane and Baby Girl Kathy.
