With great sadness we regret to announce the passing of our beloved ‘Dad,’ surrounded by his loving family on Monday, Oct. 26, 2009.
He was the last surviving member of his immediate family; predeceased by his parents, Euphemia Robinson (Doyle) and William Doyle, his brothers, Ronald and Francis, sisters, Mary, Agnes and Evelyn. He was also predeceased by his son, Stephen.
Left to celebrate his life are his wife of 52 years, Mary (Doucette) Doyle; son, Barry (Jenice), Ingonish; daughters, Rose; Grace (Doug), both of Sydney; Carol (Barry), Ingonish and Louise (Tony), Ingonish; special daughter, Jenny (Doug), Ingonish. He also left behind 12 grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
Albert was a fisherman until his early retirement due to ill health. He loved to be surrounded by his wonderful wife and family. He was a sweet, honest and gentle soul who will be dearly missed by his family and community. His faith was strong till the end.
