Doyle, III (Eileen); grandchildren, Stephanie and Brian Shaw, Sean (Xochil), Cathy and Joy Doyle; great-grandchildren, Ericka and Austin Phillips, Kalie Shaw, and Avery, Thiago, and Camila Doyle.

So sorry to hear of Katie’s passing. I was a classmate of Katie’s at St. Mary’s and used to enjoy seeing Katie at our St. Mary’s girl’s lunches. I remember having a delicious lunch at her daughter’s house several years ago with several of our alum’s. Katie will be missed.
