Doyle was one of the most gentle and kind men that I knew. Incredible people skills and just a really neat guy. He was a strong positive influence in my life for the Lord Jesus. I am thankful for his role as a school board member during my tenure. I pray that God's grace would abound to his family, close friends, and church during this time of tragedy. Psa 121:1 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.

The best dad a daughter could ask for and an amazing grandfather to his 5 grandkids. For many who did not know him personally, he was the most caring man ever. As my best friend would say, He was big teddy bear. He did anything and everything to make sure our family was happy and taken care of. I am going to miss my Dad more than words can say. Thank you to everyone for all the support and prayers. I love you dad.
Love your daughter, Diane ( baby doozers )

I will never forget the proud and loving look on Walt's face as he walked his eldest daughter down the aisle. It was so apparent to everyone who knew Walt that he loved God, loved his beautiful wife, and loved his wonderful children. The home that Walt and Jenny built is warm, open, and loving and is a place that people love to be. He will continue to shape the people whose lives he touched, even now when he is in a better place.

Walt was a good soul, reliable, dedicated and dependable as a peer and as a friend. My condolences to Walt's family in this tough time. Walt, my friend, you will be missed!

Buck was like a father to me and will be greatly missed. I can't say enough about how much of a good man Buck was and how he took care of his family in such a way that still makes me smile everytime I think about it. I am honored to know him and be able to call him my father-in-law (father to me) and a great friend. We will all miss you dearly and love you so much.

P.S.
LA loves you poppa!
