In Loving Memory of Doyle Fox
February 16, 1961 – January 16, 2026
Doyle Fox, age 64, of Bellflower, Missouri, passed away on January 16, 2026. He leaves behind a legacy of creativity, intellect, and a sense of humor that will never be forgotten.
A Life of Creativity and Wit
Born in Missouri Valley, Iowa, on February 16, 1961, Doyle was the son of the late Garland Fox and Carol Sue Johnson Fox. From an early age, it was clear that Doyle possessed a unique intelligence and a curious spirit.
He was a man of many talents and hobbies. Whether he was out fishing, focused on a piece of woodwork, or immersed in arts and crafts, Doyle approached everything with a distinct perspective. He was perhaps most famous among his friends and family for two things: his signature "Albert Einstein" hairdo and his legendary, maniacal laugh that could brighten (or startle) any room.
Family and Legacy
Doyle was preceded in death by his parents, Garland and Carol Sue; his brother, Dwight Fox; and Samantha Fox and Diane Ryan.
His memory lives on through his children: Nathan Niemela, Dalton Curtis (Jimmy Curtis), Dexter Fox, and Devon Fox (Derrick Fry). He was a proud grandfather to Brooke, Bella, Pipper, Aubrey, Dean, and Rikki, all of whom will carry forward his spark of creativity.
