Douglas Tolbert Crockett, 49, of Salem, Virginia, gained his wings on Thursday, January 20, 2022.

Doug is predeceased by his parents, Shirley and Jimmie Crockett; and his cousin, Kenneth Rock.

Doug was a man of many talents. He loved to ride motorcycles on the open road. He loved music and playing instruments, especially his drum set. He was experienced in auto mechanics and would always be ready to lend a hand if you needed. One of his most peaceful past times was fishing, which he did as often as he could. Doug was an unforgettable person with a heart of gold and will be truly missed.

Doug is survived by his son, Codey Raines of Elliston, Virginia; his sister, Becky Surber, and her husband, Rick of Shawsville, Virginia; his brothers, Donnie Crockett and his wife, Tonya from Moneta, Virginia, and Bobby Crockett of Franklin County, Virginia; his stepchildren, Aaron Beckner and his wife, Kealin of Salem, Virginia, and Kayli Williams; his grandchildren, Emeri Raines, Ryleigh Beckner, Lakyn Williams, and July Williams; his nephews, Darren Crockett and his wife, Crystal of Hurt, Virginia, Corey Montano and his wife, Shannon of Hardy, Virginia, and Tristian Crockett of Virginia Beach, Virginia; his nieces, Amanda Glass of Roanoke, Virginia, and Kayla Lilly and her husband, Will of Salem, Virginia; great-nieces, Mia Wagner and Karen Lilly; his special longtime friends, Scoot Slusher, P.J. Givens, and Anthony Furgenson; and his beloved dogs Walley P and Zigi Zoo.

A celebration of Doug's life will be planned for the Spring of 2022.
