Doug started his trucking experience working at Darwin Farms Egg Ranch when he was a senior in High School hauling eggs. In 1970 he started D.H. Winn Trucking. He loved having the trucking business and went from 1 truck to 74 over the next 35 years. He was a well respected member of his community, and had a passion for helping others. Doug had a special bond with his son, Russell who followed in his dads footsteps.
