Doug was a graduate of Caldwell High School and attended Bowling Green State University.

Those left to miss him dearly are his wife Karen Crock (nee Colosi) whom he married August 2nd 2013; his parents Kenneth and Donna Crock (nee Arnold); his sister Sandra Linville (nee Crock); nephew Dylan Linville; niece Kylee Linville; step daughters Rachael Bledsoe (Ron) and Katherine Bateman; grandchildren Colin Bledsoe and Kendal Bledsoe; as well as aunts, uncles and cousins of the Crock and Arnold families.

Doug loved spending time with family and friends, was an avid scuba diver – on his 50th birthday, he went Scuba diving in the Red Sea, OSU football and Cleveland Indians Fan (I know they changed their name but Doug wasn’t on board).

    Doug had a way of making us feel like we were his very best friends and he seemed to have that effect with everyone. We found Doug to be infectiously upbeat and good-hearted. Of course we shall miss this wonderful person. Very sad.

  7. I worked with Doug for over 15 years. He became a super great friend. We went on a ski vacation to Vermont together, what a great time. We worked together on our homes and what a craftsman. He was my buddy and I will miss him more than words can say.
    I’ll see you later Doug, you will always be in my heart.
