Doyle was always the life of the party and center of attention. Affectionately known as "Hollywood", "Party Doyle", "Machevelli" and "Garfield". Doyle loved to read, politics, old-school music, cooking and having dinners for family and friends. He always had a smile and never hesitated to tell you how handsome he was, and if you dared not to agree, he would say "stop your hating, I know I look good" followed by his beautiful smile.
