1990s Country Star Doug Supernaw Dead at 60

Doug Supernaw, 60, died on Nov. 13 at his home in Texas, according to a statement on his Facebook page. Doug was diagnosed with Stage IV lung and bladder cancer in February 2019.

Fighting the good fight for almost two years, Doug’s cancer had spread to his brain and spine, and he was placed in Hospice care in October 2020. Doug Supernaw passed away peacefully at his home in his beloved Texas on November 13, 2020. He is survived by his third wife, his children and grandchildren. Respect for their privacy is great appreciated.”

Doug was a mainstay on the country charts in the early 1990s with Top 5 hits like “I Don’t Call Him Daddy,” “Enough Hours in the Night” and “Reno.”
