Dao Doyal Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Daniels Chapel of the Roses Funeral Home and Crematory, Inc. - Santa Rosa on Dec. 16, 2025.
It is with heavy hearts that we bid farewell to our remarkable and beloved mother, grandmother, and the heart of our family-Dao Doyal. A woman of unwavering strength, kindness, and love, Dao touched the lives of all who knew her.
Dao fought a long and difficult battle with courage and grace, never allowing her pain to diminish her warmth and compassion. Despite her struggles, she always found ways to give, to support, and to bring joy into our lives. Her love was evident in her actions, her words, and her endless sacrifices-especially during the holidays when she ensured that her family felt cherished, even with limited resources.
She was the foundation that held us together, her unwavering spirit guiding us through life's ups and downs. Dao often told her family that when her time came, it was left to us to keep her legacy alive and to unite the family. Today, we honor her promise, committing ourselves to live by her example of resilience, love, and integrity.
Dao is survived by her two sons, Michael and David; her daughter, Jennifer; and four grandchildren who will carry her memory forward. Her words, "My job here is done," echo softly, but her love and guidance will forever remain in our hearts.
In her life, Dao demonstrated what true love, sacrifice, and strength look like. Her legacy is one of compassion, resilience, and unwavering devotion to her family. Though she may have left this world, her spirit continues to inspire and guide us.
Rest peacefully, Mom. You are forever in our hearts, our guiding star, and the love that sustains us.
