The official biography of Doug Vos. Stories from my life, collected from various autobiographical vignettes, Vos family newsletters, my mother’s memory box, social media, and other sources. Perhaps you arrived here from my about page, or a random social media post. However you got here, I’m happy you took the time for a visit.
My wife, Jane keeps reminding me that I’m the only one who can document these stories from my life, and she has a good point. Anyone can write about the political, religious or technology news of the day — and I do enjoy researching and writing about those topics. However, I’m one of the few people in the world that can record and write down the memories of my life. I hope you enjoy reading my autobiography.
As of 22-Sep-2025 I have 15 grandchildren, and these stories are mostly for them — however, you are welcome to read them also. I hope you enjoy these stories about my life.
