On Wednesday September 24th, 2025 Doug Woodard suddenly passed away. He was a brilliant, kind, generous, and gentle man who dedicated his life to his family and the local music community he loved so deeply. Doug leaves behind his wife of nearly 40 years, Melanie, as well as their two children Jessica & Allie and two grandsons Brayden and Casey.

Their family needs our help right now. A small funeral has been planned to honor Doug's life and legacy. Any contributions made to this fund will go directly towards those final expenses during this most difficult time for the Woodard family.

Doug was always the first one to offer to lend a helping hand, show up to an event, promote a show, give advice, and show love to others. Together as a community, I hope we can now come together for him and his family in their time of need.
