Douglas Paul Sobolewski passed away peacefully in his sleep on the morning of June 18th, 2024.

Doug was born on May 21st, 1967 in Wakefield, Michigan. The son of Sharon Sobolewski, Doug grew up with his three brothers Bruce, Donald, Jerry, and his sister Tanya. Doug's family would relocate to Ironwood where he'd go on to graduate at Luther L. Wright. In 1991, Doug would meet the love of his life Heidi Exle Sobolewski and the two would marry in 1994. Together, they would raise his two daughters Heather and Hillary Koski. During their childhood, Doug enjoyed taking them on several trips to Disney World.

Doug was close to his late brother Donald and the two often enjoyed a drink and a good Football game together. Doug was a lifelong fan of the Detroit Lions and attended as many games as he could. Doug often loved to spend his free time with his late father-in-law Fred Exie working on various projects. He enjoyed a nice beer while mowing the yard every spring and Football season every fall. Doug enjoyed the last eighteen years of his life with his three grandchildren, Hillary's son and daughter Curtis and Caylee Mewbourn, and Heather and John Hall's daughter Claire Hall. Doug loved coming home every day and spoiling his dog Gus.

As part of his final wishes, Doug chose to donate his organs to help those in need. Doug will be cremated and his family intends to honor him with a private ceremony. Those wanting to pay their respects can honor him by enjoying a good light beer while mowing their yard.
