Bobby could often be found listening to his radio, cheering on the Eagles, Phillies and Yankees. He loved his sports. He also was an avid bowler, belonging to numerous bowling leagues and received many trophies.
In addition to his parents he was preceded in death by two brothers, Tim and Joe Doyle.
Surviving are his three sisters, Sue Jones and her husband Ed, Tower City, Rose Challenger, and Kathy Doyle, both of Williamstown; a brother Larry Doyle, Joliett; two nephews and two nieces; three great nieces and two great nephews who he dearly loved.
