Big D,

I am so sad to learn of your passing and even more disappointed we were unable to hook up for a cup of coffee and some laughs. I think about you and my time working at the stadium often and am glad we stayed in touch through Facebook from time to time but sure wish we had talked more often. Rest easy, my friend, and I look forward to seeing you down the road when we meet again. Love and miss you!!

What a great man with an enormous heart. The thing I loved and respected most about Doyle was that he always let you know where he stood, and was not afraid tell you exactly what he thought. I enjoyed our many conversations about Bill W., the Razorbacks and other topics of the day. He will be surly missed by all who knew him. Rest in Peace, my friend.

Doyle was one of the most thoughtful people I’ve ever met. Without fail, for 10 years he would bring the K9 Officers drinks at the Razorback football checkpoint regardless of the weather conditions. He served others always with a smile. He was my friend.

Cheryl I'm so very sorry for your loss, I loved seeing Ya'll when you came in the clinic. Doyle was my sonic buddy, can't tell you how many times he would beat me in the mornings and be in front of me and buy me a drink. Many more than I got to buy him. Hugs and Prayers tor you ad yours. ???
