Certainly, here is a longer and more detailed obituary-style tribute for Douglas G. Eskay:

In Loving Memory of Douglas G. Eskay
Girard, OH
1974 – 2025

With heavy hearts and profound sadness, we announce the passing of Douglas G. Eskay, who left this world far too soon on April 18, 2025, at the age of 50. Born in 1974, Douglas was a beloved son, brother, uncle, and friend whose presence brought warmth, laughter, and kindness to all who had the pleasure of knowing him. A lifelong resident of Girard, Ohio, Douglas was deeply rooted in his community and cherished the life he built among family and friends.

Douglas had a unique ability to make others feel seen and valued. His sense of humor was infectious, his compassion unwavering, and his loyalty unmatched. Whether sharing stories over a backyard bonfire or lending a helping hand without ever needing to be asked, Douglas was always there — a quiet but steady force of love and reliability.

Known for his strong work ethic and humble spirit, Douglas took pride in everything he did. He was a man of simple joys: long drives on country roads, cheering on his favorite sports teams, enjoying time outdoors, and gathering for meals with the people he loved. Those who knew him best will remember his easy smile, his sharp wit, and the gentle way he cared for those around him.

Douglas’s life was one marked not by grandeur, but by the deep, lasting connections he nurtured throughout the years. He had a remarkable way of making everyone feel like family — whether through a warm hug, a well-timed joke, or simply his steadfast presence in times of need. The void left by his absence is profound, but the legacy he leaves behind — of love, loyalty, and laughter — will endure.

A memorial service to celebrate Douglas’s life will be held on April 29, 2025, at the Kinnick Funeral Home. Friends, family, and all whose lives were touched by Douglas are invited to come together in remembrance, to share stories, and to honor a life lived with quiet dignity and immeasurable heart.

During this time of mourning, we ask that you please keep the Eskay family in your thoughts and prayers. May they find comfort in the outpouring of love and support from the community, and in the treasured memories of a man who meant so much to so many.

Though Douglas has departed from this world, his spirit will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew and loved him. He will be missed more than words can express.

Rest in peace, Douglas. You will never be forgotten.
