Not sure what to say?

JD and I were colleagues at Triton for many years. It was a pleasure and a learning experience serving as JD’s assistant track coach. We shared a lot of good memories. God bless you, JD.

J.D., From the first day I was hired you welcomed me onto your football staff as a freshman football coach. From that time on you were a good friend and mentored me in both teaching and coaching. It was a pleasure and an honor to work with you at Triton. Jim was all about family, he loved both his own and his Triton family. He was a wonderful man! I always looked at Jim as my second father. We will miss you J.D. Gary ( Kid ) McGaurn & Kathy

To the Doyle family, Our heartfelt thoughts Jimmy, Kathy and your extended family. Although we never met Coach Doyle, it is obvious that he was an amazing gentleman, father and coach to so many folks. We were aware of him being a part of Shades of Paper but are fortunate to have learned of his many friends with their special messages. Blessings and take care. Barbara and Patrick

To the Doyle Family,
Your father always had such a major positive impact on every human being he would come in contact with. Coach Doyle's words, as an athlete in high school and later in life as an adult, would always encourage me personally to continue moving forward no matter what the obstacle is. He was such an inspiration to all of us and I will always cherish the wonderful memories we have.

JD: You are special in every way. It was a privilege to work with you at Triton and share your dedication to education.

You remain in our hearts forever.

A great privilege to know and have Coach as part of our extended family.

Always clear that nothing ever got in the way when it came to his work and love/support for family, friends and community. No task nor obstacle too big to overcome for Coach. He was the epitome of a true man with true grit and heart of gold. A role model and inspiration to all in his life.

God bless and God speed, Coach. Love and condolences to immediate family.

My sincere condolences. Coach Doyle was truly a gentle and honorable man. He was a wonderful role model
not only for his students and athletes, but also for the many adults whose lives he touched. May his memory and the memory of his well lived life live on in our hearts.

My condolences and prayers go out to the entire family. I came to Triton H.S. mid-year of my Junior Year 1981. My Senior year, I signed up for the track weight team. What I did not know was that I would be coached by a "MAN" with an infectious smile who gave his upmost respect and dedication to all of his students and athletes. The way he made everyone feel that you could do anything, gained my total respect and admiration for Mr. Doyle. I always looked forward to talking to him at the...

I was very sorry to hear of Jim Doyle’s passing. I worked with Jim as a teacher & assistant football coach at Triton High School. He was a wonderful teacher, coach, & good friend. My condolences go out to his family. May he Rest In Peace.
