Doug is by far the best drummer I have ever seen or heard in this style of music. I've learned much by watching him play and patterned much of my style of drum playing after him. What a shame to know he is gone.

Doug was the best drummer and songwriter in Southern Gospel music. We are going to miss him here in Eastern North Carolina. Our thoughts and prayers are with Amy Jo, Chapen, Griffin and the whole Riley family we love you guys and Gold City.

God Bless Ya'll

Doug was the best drummer there ever was, and was truly a family guy.
May god be with you in this time.

It's amazing how our lives can change in a day. But the Lord never changes -- He's our Solid Rock. May the Mighty Comforter -- the Holy Ghost -- wrap them in the love of Jesus and bring peace that no man can bring.

"Peace I (Jesus) leave with you. My peace I give unto you; not as the world gives, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled; neither let it be afraid."

I don't understand these things, but I know God is faithful. We'll understand it better by and by.

God bless

Doug Riley was a true gentleman and someone that Tom and I both appreciated as a friend. We are shocked and certainly thinking of the family as they face the grieving process through the days ahead. When Doug left his latest message to us on our voicemail a week ago, we certainly never dreamed it would be the last one. What a wonderful testimony and a spirit of kindness he leaves behind, not only for the family he cherished, but for the body of Christ as well. He will be greatly missed!

I am in total shock! Doug was my buddy. He was a GREAT man, drummer, songwriter, husband, father, and man of God. I too Have incorporated his drumming style with mine. He has been a great inspiration to me, and i will miss him. I will be praying for all of the Gold City family.
