Doyle was a kind man who loved children, our granddaughter Ashdin could not say Doyle when she was little and called him doughnut instead and he loved it.
While Doyle was happy on the outside I knew there was a deeper darker side, he did not reveal it very often but since Lee and Doyle we both Vietnam vets they shared an unspoken bond. Doyle wanted to help other Veterans and often asked about what project I had going that he could help with as I think he felt he needed to do something for others who had less than he did.
Many things in life are hard to understand, the sudden loss of a friend like Doyle is one of them. My condolences to the family, to Judy and to all who grieve, may Jehovah comfort you and hold you close in this time of sorrow.
The lake will not be the same without you buddy. We will miss your smile, golf cart mischief, gadget demonstrations and most of all your love. Thank you for your service to our country and we are better to have known you.

Doyle was funny, happy , generous and had the biggest laugh. He was one of the best shag dancers we've ever known. He had the biggest smile , a heart of gold and always looked so handsome in is Hawaiian shirts. We will miss him at the lake riding in his golf cart and entertaining everyone he passed by.
May God bless you Doyle and may you find peace in a better place. Our thoughts go out to Judy and Doyle's other family members.
Love , Brenda and Cathy

Doyle was one of those true friends that most of us rarely, if ever, have the good fortune to come in contact with.He was loyal ,honest and caring and always brightened a room when he entered. Although his presence will be greatly missed for years to come, he leaves a legacy of pleasant memories for us to keep close to our hearts forever. Doyle, we will miss you buddy, but we know you have gone to a better place where you will receive your just reward. We love you. Keath and Jeff of Custom Auto Restyling
