So sorry to hear this. Doyle and Betty were living legends! They were wonderful friends and we enjoyed numerous Chinese buffets and dinner at theirs and our home. We went to political rallies and Southern Gospel concerts together…and they both were longtime supporters of KLLN radio. We will never forget them . . .

I’m proud to be his daughter. He was the best Dad God could of given us five kids. I don’t know how we’re going to go through life without him, his advice and his humor and his strength. Rest now Poppa and enjoy being where you’ve wanted to be since you said I’ll see you soon Betty. I love you Daddy and I’ll try to always honor what you and Mom taught us. Until I see you again I’ll keep you in my heart 💜
