Dick Doty was the package deal of kindness, love and empathy. If a picture was next to the words, 'Worlds Best Father' or 'Worlds Best Husband' in any book it would be Mr. Doty's picture front and center.

He was always early or on time for everything, much to his chagrin since his three girls were usually late for everything.

Much to his quiet and humble personality dad slipped out of this world quietly in his sleep while fighting his absolute hardest against sepsis and pneumonia.

He was a proud Marine who served in Vietnam. A wonderful and loving father and husband. A man who ran into a situation no matter how small or big to solve it when he could have easily walked away.

He is survived by his wife, two daughters, a grandson, and in 2019 he was upgraded to great grandfather status with his first great grandson. He is also survived by his father, two brothers and two sisters, his mother-in-law, his brother-in-law and family, his former son-in-law and his daughters boyfriend. He was also survived by numerous family members who all agree he was a genuinely good soul.

He was met in glory by his mother, two brothers and sister, along with numerous family who went before him.
