Our condolences to the DOYLE Family as we are saddened by the news of the UNSUNG HERO!...
Quick couple stories... to share with the Fam Jam about RON The "CITY DON"..
When Ron lived in ayr he would stop buy my shop when it was in Ayr....knock on the window and told me to come outside, he wanted to have his coffee break with me!...
He started telling me about his idea for the Haciena and sketched out on a pocket pad he had his vision of the arches that was inspired by his walk in Spain!...I thought.."whatever CITY DON RON you're Nuts!".. I said..LOL well he sure proved me wrong and the rest of the world...!!!
1 more going back to 1993. (Dating Nadine in highschool)
Ron took me and her out for dinner I remember him ordering a 70.00 bottle of wine and drinking it himself! our dinner was like 300.00 he asked me to drive home...
BUT I always thought to myself "WOW this guy is super successful to be able to afford dinners and bottles of wine of this magnitude!!!
...and he truly was a HUMBLE SUCCESS STORY!
Not only in wealth but in COMMUNITY KINDNESS and assisting others to rise up the the Podium with Ron's Grace & Guidance!!!
Also easter lunch at Nadine's grandparents.... Ron leans over to me and says " pssssst steve my mom would probebly like you better if you took off your ball cap at lunch...then started laughing.....even his humour leaves lasting impressions on Growing up!..
....R.I.P CITY "RON DON" DOYLE...YOU BUILT a LEGACY for the rest of the worlds working stiffs like me that Hardwork and a set of "FAMILY JEWELS"(confidence/taking risks) can allow you to top the podium!...and in Ron's case he wanted everyone and his family on top of the podium while he took the Pic!..
Thanks for your legacy Ron!...
Enjoy your LIFES Next Chapter of rebuilding the PEARLY GATES!
as I am sure you have a wild idea of how they should have been better built!
Our sympathies To the DOYLE family Mrs. Doyle Nadine, Molly, Leslie & Patrick & EXTENDED Family That he touched in his pavement pounding warrior'd GREATNESS!
