Patrick Henry Doyle, 85, of Austin, died February 7, 2021. He was born on October 16, 1935 in Houston, Texas as the son of Ed and Ella Doyle.

He served in the Texas National Guard for eight years and received the expert marksmanship medal. Pat retired from the City of Austin Electric Department after 34 years of service.
Pat will be remembered most for his infinite love for his children, granddaughters, and great-grandchildren. He found so much happiness in supporting his sons' and granddaughters' activities from baseball, golf, and kickball to softball and dance. He loved spending time with his family and friends hunting in Colorado, fishing out of Port Aransas, playing Texas holdem, and taking trips to the casinos in Las Vegas and Shreveport. His smile and sense of humor was contagious. He was always a fair, honest, and caring Papa.
