Doyle Moss —
Mayor of Willow Park
Doyle has volunteered and served on committees and boards
all of his adult life. “I enjoy serving, helping others and
making a difference, and hopefully I’m doing that.” Doyle
also helped start an orchestra in the church he was raised
back in Sherman. “We went from two to three members to
over 25 and it’s still active. I played baritone in the Sherman
High School Band and played trombone in the church
orchestra.” His favorite way to pay it forward?
“Since my mother died in 2006, I have a soft spot for ladies
who are dining alone. If there happens to be a senior lady in
a restaurant, Ms. Linda knows we are going to buy her meal.
I enjoy buying meals for family, friends and strangers from
time to time. Several times I’ve seen young people at a table
eating [while] on their phones, I’ll offer them $20 toward
their meal to put down their phones and talk to each other.”
His best day? “Start the day off with breakfast at the Aledo
Diner, a round of golf with Ms. Linda or the guys I play with,
and dinner with Ms. Linda alone or with family.” His best
piece of advice? “It’s more blessed to give than receive, and
if I help enough people get what they want, I’ll get what I
want.”
