Joe Douglas Raska

Joe Douglas Raska of Corpus Christi, TX, passed away on Saturday, July 3, 2021, in Austin, TX.  He had fought a long, courageous battle after complications from foot surgery. 

Doug graduated from Agua Dulce High School in 1991, then earned his degree in Mechanical Engineering from UTSA.  He found electrical work more appealing, and he was working as an electrician in Austin until May 2021, when he became ill.  Doug loved to fish, and he was looking forward to fishing and camping with his family when he healed.

He was preceded in death by his father, Henry Joe Raska and brother, Keith Alan.

Doug is survived by his mother, Dianne Raska; sister, Kelli (Dan) Hughes; and four special nephews, Peyton, Henry, Gabriel, and Cohen (Coco) Hughes; and two furry friends, Sheila and Ralphie.
