Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.Wow. Your responses were so wonderful. I hope you can imagine what the gift of your kindness meant to my dad as he turned 80. Reading your posts together as a family while they were projected on a screen in his living room was such a moving, joyful experience, and I feel very blessed that you all were kind enough to take the time to share your well-wishes and memories so that we could celebrate his career at Denny, his passion for music, his stint as a guitar store owner, and all the relationships he loved, together with him. My dad was incredibly moved by hearing from you and he loved the card very, very much - every post, every co-worker and friend, every student. I thought that hearing from you would mean the world to him, and it exceeded even what I hoped. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.With deep appreciation, Mr. Doyle’s Family

Mr. Doyle was my history teacher in 8th grade at Denny. Denny Pioneers? He used to love the students, like me, who would look through their yearbooks instead of doing their assignments. Happy Birthday Mr. Doyle!RC

Ed also owned Friar Tuck’s Guitars in the Junction. It was located at 4456 California from 1972-76 and 4435 California from 1977-81. I spent a LOT of time there…and a fair amount of money too! Happy Birthday, Ed!
