“The Legend of Lake Isabella”

Posted

Doug Sammons, memorialized as “The Legend of Lake Isabella” on YouTube, passed away peacefully in his sleep on May 21, 2025. Though we are saddened by his loss, we rejoice knowing he is now face to face with his Lord—healed of all earthly ails and singing praises in heaven.

Doug lived a life of integrity and service, devoted first to his Savior, King Jesus. He also faithfully served his country in the U.S. Air Force.

Please join the family for his memorial service at 9:00 a.m. on Friday, June 13, 2025, at Lake Isabella Valley Mortuary (5108 Lake Isabella Blvd., Lake Isabella, CA).

Following the service, at 10:30 am, a military escort will lead family and friends to Bakersfield National Cemetery (30338 E. Bear Mountain Blvd., Arvin, CA 93203), where full military honors will be rendered at 12:30 p.m.

After the graveside service, the family welcomes all to gather for light food and fellowship at 2:30 p.m. at Kernville Baptist Church (46 Valley View Drive).

Please join us where you can, and bring memories or photos to share as we celebrate a life well- lived.
