Doug was born in Austin, TX on December 16, 1950 to Aubrey Allen and Billie Jean Hammer. He was the oldest of six children. Doug went to school in Leander, TX, where he graduated in 1969. He went on to attend Cisco Junior College, where he met the love of his life, Cheryl Clark. Doug and Cheryl were married on June 2, 1973, and moved to Dublin, where he started his concrete construction business. It was here that they made their home for almost 50 years, and where they raised their three children, Melissa, Shelly, and Ryan. When Doug wasn’t working, he loved riding horses, and enjoyed roping competitively, a trait that he seemed to have passed on to his grandkids. Doug loved spending time with family and friends, sitting on the front porch, and enjoying his grandkids. Doug was loved by many and will be greatly missed.
