“ Doug”
Douglas Carl Munson passed away from our hearts Thursday, May 13, 2004 after a courageous fight with pancreatic cancer. Doug was born on March 18, 1958 in Beaumont and was a 1977 graduate of Forest Park High School and attended Lamar University before moving to Austin, Texas where he worked for IBM and Slectron until selling real estate became his passion.
He was an avid runner, mountain biker, loved music, and lived each day to it’s fullest. Doug cherished the love of his family. His friends made him complete.
Survivors include his wife, Amber Moore Munson of Austin; father and mother, Jack and Lyndall Munson of Beaumont; his two sisters, Jackie Munson Suarez of Houston and Lyndall Munson Armstrong and her husband Mike of Thornton, Colorado; nieces and nephew, Chelsea and Kaylee Suarez and Morgan and Cody Armstrong; two daughters and son-in-law, Autumn and Jacin Brady and Margaux Silva all of Austin; and grandchildren, Denise and Jacin Brady; and numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and countless friends.
