He was born on Aug. 24, 1953 in Huntingdon, PA to the late Gerold “Joe” and Joyce M. (Westover) Dunkle. He married Maureen “Mo” (Larkin) Dunkle in April of 2013.

He is survived by children, Ashlee T. Crownover (Jason), of Belleville, Kendalle R. Dunkle (Donald Casner), of Allensville, Robyn M.

Douglas graduated in 1971 from Kishacoquillas High School. He was a proud Navy Veteran who served from 1972-1975. He retired from New Holland after 30 years of service. Following retirement, he enjoyed doing construction work for several years. He was a member of the Evangel Baptist Church in Lewistown and also a member of the American Legion in Milroy.

He was an avid hunter and fisherman, loved riding his motorcycle, enjoyed woodworking and carpentry. He was Alabama Crimson Tide’s most loyal fan since the 70’s. He was a very devoted family man and dearly loved his wife, children, grandchildren and his brothers.
