I always looked forward to visiting with Doyle while he still lived at home there at Jenkins Ferry. Doyle, Peggy, Jimmy, and Billy, and I would spend time together while the grownups talked. Mostly poking around the woods near the house. His laugh was contagious, and he made everyone happy when he was around. I miss him. After he left for Texas, I only saw him at family reunions, one of which he attended on his Harley. I always felt I could ask anything of him and he would have done it the best it could be done. A huge number of people will miss him, but he left us with all of the good deeds and memories, and a great family to pass on his happiness............Douglas F. Smith
