Douglas Davenport

Douglas A. Davenport, 68, died peacefully at his home in Waunakee surrounded by his family on Saturday, July 11, 2020.   Born in Richland Center on December 13, 1951 to Douglas and Beverly (Brown) Davenport, he married Jody (Mulhern) Davenport June 9, 1973.

Doug is survived by Jody, his loving wife of 47 years, and 3 sons; the favorite son, Brent (Heather), Brandon “BJ”-Dingy Jr, and Dr. Doug (Jamie), the good son; mother-in-law Coletta Mulhern, his wife’s father James Mulhern; 9 grandchildren, Mackenzie, Ty, Gabrielle, Reese, Isaac, Camden, Braylon, Calen and Cooper.  Doug has 6 siblings, Cheryl (Steve) Brewer, Sharon (Darryl) LeVoy, Alice (Wayne) Rogers, Betty Goth (John), and Paul.  He was preceded in death by his parents, brother James “Jimmy” Davenport, and brother-in-law Jon Mulhern.
