Douglas James Woodward
Born in Mitchell, Oregon 1-14-1927
Died at home, Redmond, Oregon 3-24-2015
Too young to serve in the military
in WWII, Douglas quit school and
joined the Merchant Marines and
served in the Pacific Theater
hauling military cargo to the
troops. After the war he moved to
the Roseburg area, and later to
Prineville, then settled outside
Redmond. During his career as a
logger he was an owner of P & W Trucking and
Woodward Logging Co. He finished his logging
career working for Boss and Peach Morgan. After he
retired from logging, he spent the last 25 years as
“Sheriff of Big Summit Prairie.”
Douglas loved to hunt and fish, and spend time on
Big Summit Prairie. He also loved gardening,
watching old Western movies and just sitting in the
sun.
He was preceded in death by his parents, “Toots”
and Helen, wife of 55 years Lavern, sons “Dougie” Jr.
and Eddy, brothers Van “Ben” and an infant brother,
and sisters Doris and Gloria.
He is survived by companion Barb Keener, children
Gail and Dennis, sisters Peaches and Sue,
grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great-great-
grandchildren. Also Blue, his beloved cat.
He was loved by many and a friend to all, and will
be greatly missed.
Graveside service: West Branch Cemetery,
April 6, 2015 at 1:00pm.
Dan Cannon and Carl Naas officiating.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the
West Branch Cemetery maintenance fund in care of
Betty Woodward, Mitchell, Oregon, or the charity of
your choice.
