My Condolences to the family he leaves behind. May God hold you close and guide you. Through your difficult times .

James Doyt & Sue & family, My condolences to you & your family. I had lost track of you all for the last 64 years. I graduated from Corinth Holders in 1962. I remember James Doyt well. You were 2 grades ahead of me. I was an Archer Lodge girl who only went 4 years to Corinth. Sue I think you were longer than me. I pray the Lord will give you & your family comfort & peace during this difficult time. Lots of hugs.
Jamie will be missed by many. I will always remember the hilarious verbal rivalry that Jamie and my Daddy, WO Johnson, carried on over who was better looking. Jamie had that big smile and Daddy had that sly grin, and both had twinkling eyes. My condolences to the family.
Condolences to the family. Another angel in Gods great heaven.
Sorry for your loss🌹 Thoughts & prayers are with the family 🌹
