He was born on March 23, 1917 in Wilmington, Delaware to Harold Augustus Stockly and Francis Josephine Hout Stockly. Douglas was the oldest of three children. His parents moved to Alhambra, CA when he was a young boy with his twin siblings Bill and Mary who both passed away in 2011. Douglas was active in Boy Scouts and earned the rank of Eagle. Following graduation from Alhambra High School Douglas served on the SS182 "Salmon" submarine in World War 11. Following his honorable discharge from the service, Douglas moved his family to Eureka where he found work at Eureka Barrel Co. before moving to Brizards Construction Sheet Metal Division as an estimator and manager. Douglas and Jeanne raised four sons: Douglas Jr., Dale, Gary, and Bill. After 32 years at Brizards he went to work for the City of Arcata as a building inspector.
