Memories from Linda Doyle D'Amato - Granddaughter of Kenneth Doyle & Edna Bechle Doyle

Kenneth V. (Kenny) Doyle — c. 1930
1905-1968

Linda Doyle D'Amato, daughter of Gerald V. (Jerry) Doyle & Maryanne and the granddaughter of Kenneth V. Doyle & Edna Bechle Doyle, sent these great memories to share with other Doyle Dining Room readers ...  

One memory I have about my grandparents (Kenneth and Edna) was going to their lake house at Henderson Harbor and sleeping on their summer porch. They had so many beds out there! We loved eating at the long narrow table inside facing the lake and watching the boats go by. 

Another memory is of the times when we were young and would spend the night at their Rochester home.  I used to love combing my grandmother's hair! She loved it too and I would often comb her hair for so long that I think she fell asleep! 😂The seven of us kids used to love playing hide and seek upstairs in their house. In Uncle Dick's room, there was a little door that led to a small attic area. And in Grandma's room, there was a walk-in-closet with a door that also led out to the hallway....great places to hide from our siblings! LOL
