It is with deep sadness today that we have lost someone near and dear to many of us in the gay adult industry. Dell Douglas (or we called him, “Doug”) has worked for us in the zbuckz family for over 10 years as an Editor, Photographer, Director and Affiliate Manager. It goes without saying that his passing his a huge loss for us, not only as a worker but also as a great friend and confidant.
His greatest joy in life was Photography, and we often talked about how we need to publish a book of his amazing work. I hope someday we can make that happen. I’ll leave you guys with a few of his recent photos, which I am sure is how he’d want to be remembered.
Oh no, I’m so sorry to hear this Danny. I remember Doug posting at this forum quite a lot over the years and Doug always had interesting things to say and informative things to share. I know Doug worked very hard and I always see his name on the affiliate mailers you guys out and I will miss seeing his name on them. I’m so glad Doug was involved in an industry he was passionate about and he was very talented. Thank you for including some of his recent photographs in this post. I do hope you can publish a book of his beautiful work someday, that would be a wonderful way to remember him. RIP Doug.
Oh wow. I knew Doug when he was working for Dependanet. About 10 years ago now. We DM’ed each other because he needed some web development work done and we’ve been keeping in contact since. Because of our age difference, I called him Grandpa as a joke and I would call him couple times a year and greet him with: “Just checking in to see if Grandpa was still alive and kicking.” before shooting the shit for an hour or so. He didn’t answer the last 2 times I called to see how he was doing and now I know why. May he rest in peace.
OMG, so sad to hear… Sorry for your lose… Dough was one of the most responsive and helpful affiliate representatives I’ve ever worked with and will surely be missed…
