Our hearts are broken that Doyle is no longer with us. He is such a special soul. We will never forget all he has done for us and how he has brought so much joy and laughter into our lives. His one of a kind laugh, his brownies, homemade ice cream, and his rolls. Many fond yrs of playing cards. I am so thankful for all the talks Doyle and I had over these past few yrs. Fly with the angels Doyle! You are finally home with Nancy.Much loveLaurie Horne Frey , Kayla, and Josh

When someone we love dies, it hurts very deeply. Sorry for your loss. May you find comfort through prayer, to "the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our trials." (2 Corinthians 1:3, 4). Throw all your burdens on God, he will sustain you.

To Doyle's Family, My wife has to work during the visiting hours so we are both very sorry to hear of Doyle's Passing. We have known him a very long time and will miss him deeply. I think the first time I meet him was at Jack's Fish and Chips and then later at Wintersville United Methodist Church. My brother Harry and his wife Joyce and daughter Emily have been members of the church much longer than our family has. We have missed his greeting and are breaking in Chris to take his place. Sincerely yours, Dave and Karen Nicholson and Family
