In Memory of Ducky
Doug and his store have both been staples in the New Braunfels community. Doug took a lot of pride in New Braunfels and shared vivid memories of his passion for the band and lifelong friendships he established at New Braunfels High School. During that time he developed his strong work ethic and entrepreneurial background by helping his parents at their family owned business, H&H Fabric Store. After high school he branched out to start his own T-Shirt business. Doug started the Ducky's business in 1978, which became the store so many locals and tourists have come to know and love. Doug treated his employees like family and loved to tell stories to the customers that visited his store. Doug was diagnosed with Stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer two days before Christmas of 2016. On July 15, 2017 he peacefully passed away in his home. His two daughters, Rachael Sandahl and Renee Nalls are excited and honored to continue the success and legacy of Ducky's.
