He was a Mason and a member of the Rotary Club. Doyle and Rosie are members of the Lamar Baptist Church where Doyle served faithfully as a Deacon. He loved gardening and all kinds of outdoor activities including golf, hunting, fishing and camping. He especially enjoyed attending his grandchildren’s sports events and their other activities.
