Douglas Wayne Midkiff, 62, of Alum Creek, WV. He was born 1-22-1962. He passed away peacefully on Tuesday, May 14, 2024, at VA Foster Home, Foster, WV. He was preceded in death by his parents, Glenna (Witt) and Donnie Midkiff, sister, Donna Dorsey and nephew, Matthew Presley.

After graduation from Duval High School, Doug enlisted into the Air Force. He served in several locations as Military Police guarding missiles for 4 years. He also worked at CAMC for approximately 10 years as a security guard.
Doug never married or fathered children. Even though the girls were after him in school. That blonde hair and blue eyes. And his nice legs from playing baseball and basketball most of his earlier years. His teams were Pittsburgh and WVU.
Doug has a very giving heart and was always willing to give to or help others. Even though Doug didn’t attend church, he later accepted God as his Savior. The family is very thankful for Marty Smith’s visits after he got sick and also David Taylor for baptizing him.
The family would like to thank Marilyn and Adrian for the love and compassion they had for Doug. He felt at home and loved. Thank you to Gary Laslo, his long-term caregiver, for being there for him and April Stump who also cared for and loved him. She was a blessing to Pam. Also, thank you to the VA that provided everything to him to help him. Thank you to all who prayed for him. God heard your prayers. Thank you for friends.
