Douglas Kissel, 76, passed away after a short illness on Dec. 19, 
2019, in Lake Havasu City. Douglas was born in Atwood, Kansas on May 
20, 1943 to Burnas and Lois Kissel. He has three sons: Scott Kissel, 
Brett Kissel and Byron Kissel. He moved to Denver in 1954. Worked at 
Rocky Flats, Colorado for 30 years to a position of Functional 
Administrator of the Emergency Operations Notification Center, 
retiring at 30 years of service. He is most proud of his short service 
with the Denver Police Department. 

If he got active in something, he went all out - such as league 
football, skiing, motorcycle riding and bicycle riding. He was 
training for a triathlon at age 55 when he was hit by a truck, ending 
that endeavor. He moved to Lake Havasu City in 2001, enjoying the 
small-town atmosphere and the lake. He married Arlene in 2008, my best 
friends and Love.

He leaves behind a large extended family and friends. There will not 
be any services per Doug's request.

Memorial Lake Havasu Mortuary.
