Willie George Douglas

Reflections on the life of Willie George Douglas, born on December 2nd , 1944 to the union of Willie and Luberta Douglas in Fort Worth, Texas, he was known to his family as “Willie George.” The family moved to San Francisco, CA in 1945 where Willie grew-up, attended school and finished at Galileo High School. He accepted as his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ at an early age at The Friendship Baptist Church under the Pastor-ship of Reverend Evans Sr. His favorite Bible scripture of reading was the 91st chapter of the Psalms.

Willie did a Tour of Duty in the United States Army from September 5, 1963 until August 24,1965 with an honorable discharge. He returned to San Francisco and went to work for the City and County of San Francisco, until he relocated to College Station, Texas, to be near his mother. He worked at Texas A&M until his retirement. Willie devoted his life to aiding others in need through prayer, testimony and support in their struggles of the trials and tribulations of this life. He was blessed with a friendly, outgoing personality and a witty sense of humor that made him a joy to be around.

Willie leaves to cherish his memory a loving devoted companion, Catha Hebert, also known as “Baby” to him, and her children who affectionately call him Pops; two sons, Willie George Douglas Jr. of Louisiana and Hashaun Jamal Douglas of San Francisco, CA; Two daughters, Niasha Hebert of College Station, TX. Clarissa Hebert of Killeen, TX; three granddaughters, Quianna (Anderson) BreAnna (Anthony) and Marquia; two great-grandsons; sister, Dolores Roseman of Daly City, CA, who he called “Baby Sister”; His nephew, William E. Bracy, and family of Oakland, Ca. And a host of grand-nephews, nieces, cousins, friends and his beloved church family, The Community of Christ under the leadership of Pastor Rick.

As we say so long to our dearly beloved one with heavy hearts, we know that as much as we have loved Willie, God loves him more.

REST IN PEACE, WILLIE!
