I will miss Uncle Doyle. Whenever we came to Ephraim he and Arthella would invite us in and we would visit for hours. I loved our couple of trips up the mountain to the "Homestead" and appreciate that he shared that with us.

Aunt Arthella, Deanne and Clyde, I'm so sorry for your loss. You have been such a close family and you will have many good memories to hold on to.

Love to you,
Dean and Sandi
