He married Lynne Oberhansly from Hayden (later solemnized in the Salt Lake Temple).
Doral served in the United States Army during WWII in the Philippines. They moved to Salt Lake City, where he graduated from Henegar's Business College and worked as a head cost accountant for conglomerate dairy producers, Intermountain Milk, retiring at age sixty-four. At the same time, he served as president of their credit union, running it from home.
