Barbara B. Doyle died on August 12, 2021 in Lincoln, NE. She was born December 24, 1925 in Huntington Park, a suburb of Los Angeles, CA, to Paul Benjamin and Alice Lizotte Benjamin. She married John R. "Dugie" Doyle of Lincoln, who died in 2013. She is survived by sons; Timothy (spouse Mary), Louis (spouse Diana); grandchildren, John C. and Anne Doyle; step granddaughter, Kristin Kern-Lowe (spouse Ian); sister, Aimee Bohlander.

Preceded in death by her siblings, Rita, Tiny, and Paul.

Barbara earned a Bachelor's Degree from UCLA and a Master's Degree from the University of Nebraska. She worked for Lockheed Aircraft Company during WWII. She married Dugie in the Catholic Mission Church of San Fernando Rey and shortly after moved to Lincoln where she resided throughout her life. Barbara and Dugie had 65 years of marriage. Barbara was a teacher in Lincoln Public Schools: Belmont, Randolph and Eastridge. She was a member and past president of the Lincoln Junior League, and a member of the Nebraska Arts Council and the Fortnightly Club. Her gestures and speech were graceful. Her eyes were alert, sparkling and kind. She asked little for herself, yet was rewarded with a rich life of family and many friends. She was beautiful inside and out.

The Doyle family is grateful for care she received in later years from High Plains and The Knolls memory care staff.
